So, this pouch is for my English paper piecing supplies for Katy Jones’s class at Sewing Summit. I saw she had suggested a couple sizes for pouches on Twitter, one being a 13″ x 10″ pouch, which is what I ended up making. I originally wanted to make a Tula Pink Dresden plate, but then I thought…that is going to take me hours, and I need something really quick that I can finish before I go to bed (because I decided to start at 11 o’clock at night, how fun).
I drew out my pattern piece on Pellon Tru-Grid, then added the seam allowances for the patchwork pieces. I used some bits of Echino fabrics for my stash. Sometimes Echino is difficult to work into smaller projects because the scale is either on the larger side, or there’s a lot of negative space, but somehow it worked out.
The fabric placement is nice. I like the little jaguar and the bird flying in from the seam.
Oh it is so cute! Great size for EPP stuff too.
What a lovely pouch, so true about using Echino, you did a wonderful job!
Looks great! Sometimes we just need something sort of mindless to make (and finish!) to feel better about everything else.
loving it. if only i had some Echino scraps. nice job. have fun at the summit.
♥ It turned out incredibly gorgeous ♥
Just perfect for some EPP supplies.
I love the curved corners.
Looks great Sara!
Nice work!
Now all you need is a teeny needlebook and a teeny pincushion to tie to your scissors…. 🙂 I have a tutorial for those if you prefer to not think while making them. hehe.
Such a cute little pouch! It will be perfect for all your EPP supplies.
It’s satisfying to be able to sew something up quickly and be done with it! Cute bag.
Oh I’m glad to hear I’m not the only one that starts things late at night :oD Looks great though! You’ll be needing fabric and paper for in there ;o)
I great looking pouch. So fun and practical =D
I love Echino prints (I have some but haven’t been able to cut into them yet, haha) and I love your pouch – what a great shape! A nice size, too, for carrying supplies 🙂 I just ordered some flex frames (3.5″ and 4.75″) from Etsy – I think your pouch design would be great too as a flex frame bag!
Cute pouch. Have fun at Sewing Summit. There are several people from Austin going.
It’s super cute Sara. Love it!
