Three Pouches


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.

    This is great! I love little pouches to keep the "essentials" when I switch between purses, so I'm sure these will be much appreciated.
