Thank you, thank you, thank you Kate, from See Kate Sew – for getting me to actually attempt my first sewing project – with success!
When I saw this tutorial at See Kate Sew, it seemed easy enough for a first time sewer – and it was a great gift idea for my mom.
It’s the perfect “easy project” if you are busy and a super fun gift for anyone – I think I’ll make up a few just to have on hand!
Here’s how I made it!
You’ll need four pieces each measuring 6 1/2″ tall by 8″ wide. A front, back and two lining pieces. Kate added a label – That was a bit much for me – but if you add one, do it first! And you also need a zipper, about 8″ long.
Lay your zipper face down on the front piece. Sandwich it in with the lining piece. Your front piece and lining piece will be right sides together. If you are a poor sewer like me, pin the heck outta that thing!
Sew a straight stitch at 1/4″.
Here’s what you’ll have now..
Iron the edge down smooth and then topstitch close to the edge of the zipper. Repeat with the back and second lining pieces.
Press the edge with the iron and do a topstitch close to the zipper!
Open the zipper – Pin back and front right sides together and lining pieces right sides together. The end of the zipper should be pinned to the lining pieces.
{sorry, I forgot to take pictures at this point – I was so happy it was actually turning into something, I just forgot!}
Sew it up with a 1/2″ seam allowance, leaving some room at the bottom to fold it back out.Sew your little hole up with a straight stitch, and make sure you back stitch at each end! Stuff that lining down into the pouch and…poof – you have a zippered pouch for your lip stuff, money, cell phone, heck – just about anything!
There ya go – a quick and easy zipper pouch tutorial – and I can’t believe I made it all myself – well, with Kate sitting on my shoulder helping out! Thanks Kate!
