After the prototype I made earlier this week, I was able to finish three more versions of my Office in a Pouch for Bunny's AWANA teachers in time for her to deliver them last night at the closing program. Bunny helped me pick out the exterior fabric for each one, and I had fun selecting the fabrics to complement the main print.
If I had to choose a favorite, it would be the Melody Miller pouch. I love the way it turned out with the fussy cutting on the front and back.
I ended up making these just a tad smaller than my first one -- 8 x 13". It's a perfect fit for the supplies inside, and it makes the pouch a little easier to slip inside a larger bag if needed.
For the zipper charms on these, I used paper airplanes. It just seemed appropriate.
Linking up to Finish It Up Friday.
these are fantastic, Heidi. I'm sure the teachers will appreciate such thoughtful gifts.
