Today I am happy to share with you the Simple Zipper Bag I made using the Fat Quarter Shop’s video tutorial (available to watch at the end of this post)
I was invited to be a part of their sew along and I just couldn’t say no. This bag is perfect for carrying around sewing projects and more. I think my daughter is already eyeing it for her own needs.
The bag uses Annie’s Soft N Stable, which I had never sewn with but am now in love with. It’s awesome! It doesn’t really crease and it keeps it’s form for awhile. Plus I imagine it would protect you in case scissors opened inside the pouch or something similar.
I highly recommend it, and if a pattern calls for it, don’t ignore the suggestion. Ever.
I used Heather Jones’ upcoming line with Robert Kaufman appropriately named Color Dash (It’s available for pre-order on the Fat Quarter Shop website) for the outside, and then Kona color of the year Highlight for the inside. The binding is one of Robert Kaufman’s chambray, however I can’t remember exactly which one it was.
