I have managed to alternate with some other designs: this one for a returning customer (her 4th quilt label from me)
and this on the I-spy quilt for a colleague at work who just became a great auntie
I also had a go at making a Pythagoras pouch for Lisa. The fab Katy at Littlest Thistle explains the maths on how to make a zippy pouch with a flat bottom and vertical sides. I had this fabric that Lisa wanted used
And this
So maths done, paper template created, hole cut to allow fussy cutting
And ta-da - a zippy pouch with a flat bottom and vertical sides.
I did also put a pocket in . . .
And used the leftover fabric to make a humbug pouch
I've also used up some of my bead and charm stash by making these stilettos - great for poking things that need poking, or holding still stuff that shouldn't move
I've got this week off so I am in danger of derailing to make your straight-sided pouch. I'm writing a blog post right now so give it an hour or two to see what I've been up to.
ReplyDeleteyou have been busy this week, label will give such a professional finish to the quilt. Will check out the pouch looks good and your stilettos look lovely so pretty and pleasing to the eye
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely label Benta, the pouch looks pretty good too !
ReplyDeleteI've done the straight sided/boxed bottom bags - I think they look a tad more "professional" (or like more effort went into them) than the ones that slant in. I make them both ways, but more often, the latter way because I don't always feel like digging around for my template :D And humbug bags are a great way to use up scraps - they're fun!
ReplyDeleteYay, you did a fab job, well done!
ReplyDeleteThat is gorgeous fabric Lisa!! Good choice!
