Sewing: a tangerine, color of the year, inspired pouch:
With a navy monogram and navy lining:
The orange was one of those fabrics I just had to have while out shopping,
it’s Riley Blake designs.
The monogram is American Typewriter font, it is navy with a navy zig zag stitch all around:
And navy grosgrain ribbon on the zipper pull:
I made a matching key fob for the C pouch:
Here’s how I made the pouch:
1. Cut the pieces:
1 – exterior fabric @ 10″ x 14″
2 – lining fabric @ 10″ x 7″
1 – med. fusible interfacing @ 10″ x 14″
1 – 9″ zipper
monogram fabric with fusible
ribbon for zipper pull
2. For the full tutorial follow my post here.
Fuse the interfacing on wrong side of exterior fabric.
Then pin monogram and zig zag stitch all around:
3. Add in the zipper, be sure to use navy thread here, especially on the topstitching.
Press as you go.
Finally press the bottom gusset in to make a flat bottom:
Another pouch, I just can’t stop myself.
