Twelve Patch Zipper Pouch Tutorial

I hope you are enjoying your summer (my peeps in the Northern Hemisphere)

My kids are out of school as of two days ago and we are slowly adjusting to the new schedule (or lack thereof!)

My boys are growing up fast with the younger one entering Middle School and the older one entering High School, and I am hoping to spend as much time with them as they will let me!!!

With the end of school festivities I haven't had much time to sew, so I thought I would share a project I designed a few years back.

It is my Twelve Patch Zipper Pouch.  I do love this pouch.  I really wanted to design a pouch that has a bound zipper that can be sewn entirely by machine and this tutorial shows you how!

You can find the original tutorial [HERE]

The pouch pictured uses a "cheater" patchwork print from Lake House Dry goods and I added a few 

applique patches and a fun strawberry button I received from Sunny Day Fabric.

This is the original pouch made up of 2 1/2" squares from a mini charm pack & some fussy cut squares.

The zipper is bound with a fun text print from Lake House Dry Goods.

Happy Sewing!
