What to make, what to make for the Table Scraps Challenge for January was my thoughts earlier this month. Something blue and something with perhaps the letters C, R and J as suggested by Joy who hosts this fun challenge each month.
After seeing Wendy's Holland pouch, which I rather liked, I went ahead and bought the pattern. So why not hunt up some blue fabrics and give it a go. I have made bags and pouches before and I have installed zippers before. In an afternoon I had this baby all sewn up. The Holland Pouch is from Center Street Quilts, she has some great diagrams on IG too.
So how does the letters C, R and J fit into this project? This Challenge was Right up my alley to Just have fun!! Linking up with January Table Scraps Challenge, Design Wall Monday and Sew and Tell Monday.
Beautiful bag. You were very creative with your C R and J. :)
ReplyDeletecute bag! it turned out great love those colors you used.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great looking bag, Vicki! It will make a great gift, too. I've made many zipper pouches, but never one that shape - I'll have to try that one of these days!
ReplyDeletePretty little pouch, and beautiful fabric. Great gift. I can imagine sewing through the thick layers was a pain.
ReplyDeleteLove how this turned out! Soft and Stable is much easier to work with, but your little bag looks great!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pouch! Love it.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Wendy. Try sew-in interfacing/Soft and Stable.
100/16 Needles may help with skipped stitches. If you are determined enough, you can use any letters to match your project :-)
Gosh, I feel dumb now. Two of you used those letters in very imaginative ways, and I couldn't think of a way to use them, so I didn't do the January challenge! Love your pouch!
