Zipper Pouches

I've been working on several quilting projects recently, and Easton has been asking to help sew. The last time he showed an interest in sewing, I helped him make a simple pillowcase, using a kit from Craft Warehouse. I let him help me with some of the piecing on his Stormtrooper quilt, but he needed a project with a bit more instant gratification. I found this video tutorial by GourmetQuilter, and since it is mostly simple straight lines, it fit the bill. Easton used a fat quarter each of Just Wing It by MoMo and a random blue fabric from my stash, so all we had to do was go buy some fun zippers.


Easton's zippered pouches turned out so cute, I decided to make one for myself. I used Jenny Doan's tutorial to mix things up a bit. I chose some Riley Blake scraps for the exterior, a scrap of Kona Cotton- Grass for the lining, and some random orange binding scraps for the zipper tabs.
