A small finish that has taken me weeks to finish. And what I thought were a few quick steps today, turned into hand sewing the binding. 😒 Guess I should read the entire pattern before starting.
Here is my version of the Zip Up Tray Pouch by Comfort Stitching.
I had to use a 9-inch zipper as you can't buy 10-inch zippers here. It's too costly with shipping and possible duty charges to order from the United States. The shorter length works, but it's not perfect. Kona Prussian for the binding.
I'm not sure what it's final purpose will be, but right now, it's filled with some EPP that has been sitting on my coffee table for weeks. The messy pile looks so much better now.

Super cute and so fun! Love how it opens up.
ReplyDeleteSuper fun little finish! I love your fabric choices!
ReplyDeleteLooks great! Could you have used a longer zipper and cut it down to size?
ReplyDeleteOh wow, how awesome that it opens up like that. Congratulations on pushing through the hand sewing to the finish. :)
ReplyDeletePretty cute! I recognize the fabric inside from the Sew Sisters Bargain Club. I wasn't a big fan of that collection but you used it perfectly :)
ReplyDeleteI've seen these bags in person - they are quite clever. Thanks for linking up with Elm Street Quilts Bag It.
ReplyDeletePretty. Does it zip well on a edge ?
ReplyDeleteThat's a cute little pouch! Did you get the fabric from Sew Sisters (like one of the other commenters mentioned)? I get there sometimes in person (I'm near Toronto) but usually order online - many meters of their sale items have made their way to my house :D I feel your pain about shipping to Canada/the duty charges. Plus the fee that Canada Post collects to process the charge. Quite a royal PITA, to be sure.
ReplyDeleteBlue and orange for the win! I'm wondering how much stuff can you stuff in it and still have it close. Not that I'll ever actually make one...
