Pouches

Since these pouches were given away I can share them with you.

Echino looks great on any bag or pouch.

Finding and using matching zippers makes me happy. Zippers make me happy for reason unknown in general.

I also like long zippers which makes perfect handle.

I make majority of all pouches out of one piece of fabric. Sometimes I put extra stitches at the bottom.

I use one piece for lining as well. It means no extra seam inside.

I also made few more vinyl pouches. I shared the tut in this post.

My last project was team sewing. Mommy+daughter. The task was to create something pink starting with letter T.

So we made pink pouch with three triangles and pink tulip. Pouch in my language is called taštička so it fits perfectly.

There was hidden lollipop inside the tulip.

OMG - 12

Slowly but surely I'm working on my sewing space. Therefore my December goal is to add some vinyl pouches. As you can see there is a lack of green and blue.

I also want you to meet my new table. It is actually kitchen desk.

The design is called abstract and fits perfectly for sewing table.

Container and drawer by Ikea. 

Bookcase also by Ikea. My hubby added 3 more shelfs as per my request and rainbow need.

OMG 10 - finished

We are half way through October and I finished my goal already. Yippee! I did not procrastinate this time which is unusual.

My goal was to try out this tutorial. Those tiny pouches looked so cute I wanted some as well.
Patty who hosts OMG each month also pointed out I should link into Bag It event so if you have any pouches or bags come join in.

As you can see I didn't really thought about on which side I insert the loop with lobster clasp so I have a variety :)

Here is a peak at the back side.

I also enlarged the pouch a bit. I had a 5.5" zipper so I cut out the vinyl 5.5x9" see above picture for comparison. It's better to use larger zipper and cut it since I was not able to top stitch on those pink versions as I couldn't open up the zipper.

I did not overlock the edges but I have burned them over the candle. I done it once I took the pics and saw some thread sticking out. Better to do it prior turning inside out.

I already gave away those pink ones as my girls were both invited to Bday parties this weekend. Different friends and parties but who wouldn't like some pink goodies :)
Since my needle is dull from sewing vinyl I might make some more.
I have also put vinyl pouches on my Q4 list so that makes it 1/5.

2017 FAL Q4 list

I wasn't successful in Q3 even though I was very optimistic at the beginning :) So the question is should I join and try again? Sure!

My main goal is to settle into my new space. As you can see the walls are still empty. I also want to go through my stuff and purge a bit.

My list remains almost identical to previous quarters. I just downsized:
1. love quilt
2. vinyl pouches
3. love mini
4. zipper pouches with touch of color
5. echino bag

It's that time of dilemma. Should I join OMG this time and with what project? I wasn't really successful lately with any goals.

I thought I should try something new. I'm a good collector of tutorials but I hardly try them out. This time around I choose this one as my OMG goal: clear key chain pouch

Plus I have received kind email from Patty inviting me over. Just the last push I needed. Thank you!

So pick your own goal and join in!
