Clearly making just one qayg scrappy pouch was not enough :).
So last night I whipped up this little pouch and pincushion set.
Don't you just love how a few scraps of fabric and batting can be turned into such interesting panels in almost no time at all? Especially when you work on a small scale, like I did.
I turned the two larger panels into a simple pouch, making the pattern up as I went. I used a 6" long metal zipper and adjusted all the measurements accordingly. And, since I didn't want to go with the usual rectangular pouch shape, I rounded the corners and cut out small darts to give it a bit more depth.
Have you tried qayg before? I hope you give it a go, it's great fun.
Wishing you all a happy and creative weekend. Svetlana

I love all your little quilt as you go panels! I also think they make GREAT pouches. (of course your cutie pie little pincushion caught my eye, too!) great finishes!

Super stylish and very useful - and all from scraps! Brilliant - colours are just perfect.
ReplyDeleteSweet pouch and pincushion! I have so many scraps I should just keep batting squares by my machine and quilt up the scraps as I sew on other projects. LOL Happy Friday!
