Sewing is slow these days, but a couple of weeks ago Jack went to a double birthday party and I sewed these up as quick gifts.
They are just zippered pouches with little handles attached. We have a zipper pouch that we use toting favorite small toys around town and I've often wished it had handles, and that's how the idea for these was born. A good zippered pouch tutorial can be found HERE. The handles are lightweight with no stabilizer, created with folded strip of fabric. I just inserted the handles into the zipper seam before sewing, and there you have it.
I have a bunch of projects lined up... if only I had time to sew them.
Here's my list:
2 special order bags
Curtains for little boy's room
reupholstering the green vinyl chair
a dress for the girl
a skirt or two for myself.
pillows for my bed
everyone needs new PJ pants
I could go on but I'll stop there.
Want to see the chair I found? I think I've decided to do it in this fabric.
I've got to get busy!
I'll miss you Sarah! Thanks for everything!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see the chair redo.
ReplyDeleteThose little pouches are very cute. What kid doesn't like a bag to haul their stuff around in??
don't you wish we could keep up with what we could imagine? I love the pouches - my girls would love those!
