Le Challenge is one of my fav linky. I like to check how other interprets the same theme. I struggled a bit with this month though - Charity.
I took part in local charity which gather together pouches for elderly women in hospital. It is an ongoing project so I though about making some pouches. Then I thought about my friend who organized some charity project as well. Maybe I should make some gift for her. Either way I ended up with pouch.
The front is inspired by free hand curves pillow cover by Red Pepper Quilts. You can find the tutorial here. I tried some curves before but not with such dense quilting. Love it!
It is once again Open Wide Zippered pouch by Noodlehead. The handle is made out of zipper.
It is made out of scraps which is always great.
Maybe you noticed my quilt over @ Sew Mama Sew. Yay! I'm excited that Jessica asked me to participate in the series called My favorite quilt. You can join in the fun by sharing your fav quilt too. You'll find linky at every post of this series.
Love the pouch Vera. The zip handle is so clever. Great photo of the wee girl and her pet. They look ready for an adventure!
ReplyDeletethe pouches are great and the quilting really adds to them. the little figure is just perfect for showing it off!
ReplyDeleteThat pouch is so so cute! Love how the zip is also a handle. And a bueatiful quilt! Thanks for linking to le challenge. Hopefully the next theme is easier for you...
ReplyDeleteI love the pouch handle too and the quilting looks fantastic! Your quilt is beautiful too, I do love triangles! Thanks for linking up to le challenge :)
ReplyDeleteI am falling in love with waves! I am seeing it more and more and I am going to try it on my next quilt. I have not been one for dense quilting either but this looks like so much fun! I love your pouch! I love that quilt too!
ReplyDeleteClever handle indeed! And a clever inside photo shot!
ReplyDeleteI like the quilting on your pouch, and I am jealous of your nice triangle quilt!
ReplyDeleteYou always come up with such fantastic design ideas, Vera - I wouldn't be surprised if eventually you got into something like designing patterns for for sewing (bags? quilts? pillows?) - maybe with the end result of having patterns published or having a book published (like Amy Morinaka) - you are one TALENTED lady!!!
ReplyDeleteYay, I'm so happy to see the waves I loved so much! It turned out great! And your quilt is beautiful, too!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful curves and colors for the pouch.

I love your favorite quilt too!!
What a fantastic pouch! I love that the zipper makes the handle. Those curves are great.
ReplyDeleteThe pouch is perfect. I'm a fan of curves (not my own) and I adore how you've used them here. Using the zipper as a handle is a great idea.
ReplyDeleteI know the Red Pepper Quilts curvy cushion you mean and love how you have adapted it into a pouch.
ReplyDeleteLovely little pouch!
ReplyDeleteYour curvy quilting is awesome Vera!
