Stand Up Marker Pouch

I’ve been obsessed with these marker pouches since I saw Lorainne pin them, and I am so happy that she figured out the details and posted a tutorial just in time for Father’s Day. It calls for some truly clever and fiddly construction. Of course, my stitching is not the precise perfection that her’s is, but I couldn’t have been prouder to give these to my artsy-fartsy husband for Father’s Day.

I mean really. Big Fat Zippy Pouches that turn into stand-alone pencil cups when unzipped? Pure. Brilliance.

Pouches always make great stash-busters. The black-and-orange pouch uses leftover wool melton (from my jacket) and the lining is leftover from Andy’s Color Bar Quilt (2wenty Thr3e – Kodachrome in Clementine). The white pouch is made out of a mystery fabric (linen-ish maybe? but super soft) that I used for an embroidered handprint pillow. I love fabric scraps that bring with them happy memories of projects past.

Other than that, I really don’t have much to say. Summer is keeping me busy with the kids (of course). I am still trying to find my rhythm with the kids being home all day and various activities popping up, but I feel like we are almost “there.”

    Those are awesome! I’ve been trying to come up with an excuse to make one, but we threw all the kids markers/crayons/pencils away because they only drew on stuff they weren’t supposed to. =/ I really like the black and orange version you made. =)

Sew Fearless is about a reckless pursuit of the sewing craft. It is about not letting your fears talk you out of your dreams. It is a place to go for encouragement, information, and sewing camaraderie. It’s a place where “done” is better than “perfect”, and where saying “I didn’t try” is worse than “I failed”. Read More…
