Q1- House pouches finished


This is my third post in a row with Q1 FAL finish. You can check my full list here. Nothing works like time pressure for me :-)

Finish Along 2014

I precut the fabrics for these pouches probably a year ago. It is my fav project from the book called Zakka style. I have adjusted the pattern a bit and trying all kinds of embellishments. You can check the House mania page to see the rest. They are all different but similar. I keep the windows and door shape the same. I add grass or snow and many kinds of flowers.


This B&W combo might be my favorite ever. The flower has B&W bead in the center and cute little bird charm on the window.


On the other hand this winter one is my least favorite, lol. It's boring. The turquoise/red combo doesn't work for me anymore. I used some plastic snowflakes (cheap Xmas deco) and white polyester sees through for the bottom line.



I do like these purple flowers. There are just few French knots in the middle and green polyester for the grass section.



The last one turned out all right as well. It is probably the first time I used different fabrics for roof. There are large dots on the other side. I only added buttons on few flowers.



Phew! My current score is 7/10! Yay me! Feels good to have those old projects done. No idea what I'll do with them. I used to trade them for fabric scraps but I learned it is so hard for me to combine scraps so should I open up a store? :-) Just kidding.


That is how the back sides look. See those giant dots. So tell me which one is your fav?
