Here’s a really easy tutorial for making a cute two-tone zippered pouch with a bunting embellishment!
Supplies: 8” zipper (I used one I picked out of an old pair of pants)
Two pieces of fabric 9” x 6” (the tan colored pieces below)Two pieces of fabric 9” x 2.5” (the denim pieces)
Two pieces of fabric for the lining, 9” x 7”
Scraps of fabric for the flags
Interesting fact: I used all repurposed fabrics (lining is a t-shirt, the tan fabric is from a pair of pants, and the denim is from jeans!)
To make the bunting, sew a curved, swooping line using a running stitch onto one of the tan fabric pieces. Set the flag pieces on the line to make sure they all fit.
Next, sew the flags onto the line. I didn’t try to follow the exact original line. I think that makes it more fun.
Next, sew around each flag a few times.
After you’ve attached each flag, place the denim piece with right sides together at the bottom edge of the tan fabric and sew that into place.
To assemble the pouch, place the zipper right sides together with one piece of the outer fabric, aligning it with the top edge of the tan fabric. Align one of the lining pieces with this top edge and pin in place. Using your zipper foot, sew this into place making sure to catch all three layers.
Repeat with the other side of the pouch and lining.
This turned out so cute!!
