Denim Zippered Pouches

June 1, 2016 by Jodi 3 Comments

…and just like that, school’s out for the summer.

As a thank you for my children’s teachers, I sewed them each a denim zipper pouch. You can never have too many zipper pouches, am I right?

The key to make this bulk sewing project fun was to turn the collection of bags into the project, instead of multiple individual projects. I used a rainbow zippers, matched them to rainbow lining fabrics, and then assembly lined them together in rainbow order. I wasn’t just sewing lots of bags, I was sewing a rainbow of bags. Rainbowtized is better. always.

Directions for the zipper pouch came from the book “School of Sewing” by Shea Henderson. I have been guiding a group of friends through this fabulous book of projects, and I will be writing a review of the book and our experience with it sometime in the near future. In a nutshell, the review will say something like “THIS BOOK AND TEACHING MY FRIENDS TO SEW IS THE BEST EVER!”.

    One of the things I am expected to make for my kindergarten-age daughter this year is a pencil case, which I actually find quite daunting. I love the look of these pouches so much. I think I’m going to go check out that book (finally)!! I love how you made the insides so pretty.

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…
