triple-zip pouch

Have you seen many fun triple zip pouches popping up all over the blogland lately? I love how unique they are - you don't usually see a pouch with three functional zipper pockets. So, when Debbie came up with an idea for a triple-zip along I was totally in.


Truly, the hardest part of making this pouch was choosing my fabrics. I must have changed my mind at least 5 times. I'm glad I did though, because I love this final color combination.


Debbie's instructions are wonderfully clear, and she included lots of pictures to guide one along. I made this pouch without any hiccups at all. And, it was pretty quick, too. Once all the parts were cut out, of course. I don't know why I dislike that part so much. I don't want to cut, I just want to sew.


I was thinking it would make a very nice home for my new epp project. By the way, these paper templates are called coffins. How creepy is that? I might have to come up with a new name for them because saying "I'm making coffins." sounds just a little too weird.

What do you think? Would you like to make a triple-zip pouch, too? It's not too late to join in. You can find Debbie's wonderful tutorial here, and Flickr group here.

Thanks so much for stopping by. Svetlana

  1. I've heard those called lozenge's... (Like a cough drop is a lozenge. I could be spelling it wrong & I my grandmother always pronounced it wrong - she added an "r" at the end.)
