Carrying Pouches

These little pouches are so cute and fun to make, Im working on quite a few of them!

My order of fabric from Fat Quarter Shop arrived last week and I've been trying to decide what I should make with them. I basically put together the DS Case I made my daughter for her birthday, but made it slightly bigger and added a zipper pocket to the inside, so these would be great for just about anything! Perfect size for handheld gaming systems with the inside pocket to hold games, or they can be used as a makeup purse, or mini purse for yourself or a child!



After reading about Zipit, an etsy zipper shop, on another bloggers post, I decided to take a look at her zippers. Buying $2 zippers from Joanns and running to the store just for a zipper each time I needed one was really a pain. I figured I'd give Zipit a try. My zippers came in on Wednesday and the colors are perfect for my fabric! At only $10 for a pack of 25 zippers - at Joanns I'd only get 5 zippers for $10! Great prices and I'll definitely be shopping her store again!!

These carrying pouches are addicting to make, so be prepared to see a lot of them from me! I'll be adding these to my website tonight for sale so keep an eye out!





Im currently making one in the Happy Mochi Yum Yum fabric <3 Pink pouch with green lining. I'll post pics later of the 2 I am about to make now. Until then, Sir Fritzalot (my new nickname for him) and I bid you farewell!

  3. Oh my gosh, I just bought some of the same fabric, the Lecien Flower Sugar line! I love your bags, I've never done a zipper pocket inside a bag before, I have no idea why not. Weird.
