After piecing together another quilt top this month I wanted to have fun with little things.
This is the last little pouch I made today, I tied to match the pattern on the flap with the pattern on the front, I think I was very close to being successful.
I also used the same fabric on the inside and again, matched the pattern with the front of the bubble. Disegard the opening at the bottom of the pouch, I haven’t closed the seam yet. This is an old Keyka Lou (now Michelle Patterns) pattern. I like snaps more than velcro.
Here’s another old retired Michelle Pattern, the Zipper Pocket Pouch made with Brrr by Laurie Wishbrun. I LOVE that polarbear!
It was a good day! 
Hope your weekend is going well too.
They are both really, really great! You did a wonderful job matching the motif–I love it when things work out like that. And thanks for introducing me to Michelle Patterns.
Thanks Andrea! Michelle Patterns are really easy to follow as well as fun to make!
These are really terrific – love the way you matched the flap and front on the yellow bag – excellent!
The polar bear is really sweet. I, too, prefer snaps (or magnetic snaps!) to velcro – I don’t really like that ripping sound velcro makes!! Thanks for the inspiration of your sewing projects.
Yeah, I don’t like the sound of velcro either and it drives me crazy when you put it in the laundry and it sticks to everything! Glad you like my little projects.
Oh, yeah – that laundry business really aggravates me, too – and it shreds the lace on your underwear!!!
I love reading your blog, and I have nominated you for the Versatile Blogger Award.
