What a fun little pouch! It has a unique construction method that I found really clever, an easy zipper installation, and leather accents. Do note though, that there's a slight misprint in the book: the dimensions of the lining should be 12" x 9". Unfortunately I saw Svetlana's post about that after I was midway into the project, but thankfully was able to continue on with a minor little tweak which didn't affect the look of the pouch or its use.
I think that accent fabric next to the zipper is my favorite detail. Or maybe it's how the 'pleat' just falls into place when the pouch is turned right-side out. Either way, I like it alot. Making it with Carolyn Friendlander prints made me happy - isn't that new blue Harriot 'Screen' print wonderful? You'll be seeing that Screen print in upcoming projects as I treated myself to several colorways. Anyway, the pleated pouch is one I'll definitely be making again.
Your zipper pleat pouch turned out great. Yes, I like the accent fabric too, Carolyn's prints are fun.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the finish.
Lovely pouch Debbie, both these prints are so perfect!
ReplyDeleteWhat an interesting design! Does it have a snap closure when it's folded over...it's a bit hard to tell from your photo.
