My first pouch

I also finished my first pouch and I must say it is a real winner. Super easy and well written tutorial, very fast to make (took me under an hour), and very professional finished product.

The only thing that suprised me was how small the finished product was. It is the size of a mini - individual size - banana bread loaf. So I am not sure what I am going to use it for. Originally I was thinking sewing supplies, but it won't begin to fit scissors. I am sure I will find something perfect for it though.


I am ready to make another pouch. This time I think I will try to make it a bit bigger. I will let you know how it goes.

So I am curious now, what are you going to use yours for?

P.S. for all those wondering this wonderful tutorial is the Perfect Box Pouch by Indie House.

  1. That is very cute! I love the fabric. Maybe for the next one, try doubling every measurement (including zipper)?

    May I ask where you found the tutorial for this?

  2. Looks like a great first pouch! What I would use such a pouch for? Oh, I could think of thousands of little bits and pieces. I should just fill my house with cute little boxes and pouches. Hmm, sounds like a good idea. I'd better get sewing!

  3. A girl in my ward pulled a pouch out and asked me if it looked familiar. I thought it looked like this pouch, but I said no because it was so tiny that I didn't think it could be the same one. But she had gotten the pattern it off presser foot after seeing one of my old blog posts. I agree that it is a very professional finished product, but I would have no idea what to put in it. My friend ended up putting in a few treats and a note to give to a new beehive that is coming into young women next week.

  5. Sounds like it would be the perfect size to house all the lip glosses that are floating around at the bottom of my purse.

  7. I made one to use for a Christmas gift for my little girl. I filled it with a family of dolphins and some accessories. I used leftover fabric from another project so it wasn't as long even as this one but you can see it here if you want. http://hardmanfamilyblog.blogspot.com/2009/10/gearing-up-for-holiday-fun.html
