Zipper Pouch

When my girls were little they had a "church purse". It was brought to church and they could look at it during the Homily.  They also brought it to restaurants.  It contained, little pencils, paper, little stamps, Holy Cards, small sticker books.  Just enough to keep them entertained.
So, I thought I would make some for the grand-babies.

This young lady has the best tutorials!!
I used her's when I made my hexie pillow and now this one "How to Make a Zipper Pouch".


This first pouch took two hours! I am a slow learning!!  The second took 20 minutes!

Here they are....


For the rest of the weekend I will be cutting Farmer's Wife Blocks.

See I have the fabrics picked out for several blocks.



Of course it is snowing!!!  Oh well.

Off to cut.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

I had to get out of the house!!

Snow, snow, snow, single degree temperatures, wind chill below zero, and more snow on the way!
I was started to go stir crazy!  Is this what cabin fever was?
I think I had it. I did not even what to sew!! 
 Perish the thought. 
I needed air!!

So,  out I went and what a better place to get air than in a fabric store!!!
This is what I picked up...
One yard or ruler fabric ( flipped upside down, oops)
One yard of crayon fabric
One yard of interfacing
Three 7 inch zippers


Now I feel so much better. 
Let the snow come I have plans for this weekend.  
Hopefully!! 
The last time I put in a zipper was 20-25 years ago!!

 Hope to show you what I made in the beginning of next week.

Have a wonderful weekend and do something you love.
