my craftsy class, yay !!!

Hello lovelies, remember when I talked about the amazing opportunity I had a few weeks back when I flew to Denver and recorded a sewing class with Craftsy ? Yeah, the class is now live and it all is super surreal, and exciting, and intimidating all at the same time, eeeeek !!! My class Giftable Projects: Zippered Bags and Purse Organizer is a six lesson class with detailed instructions and lots of tips on how to make three different zipper pouches. Would you like to see the pouches I designed for the class? Here we go.  Easy Coin Pouch with removable wrist strap is the first (and easiest project). I love this sweet little pouch and have made quite a few of them for my daughters and their friends already.  The second pouch I teach is Double Zip pouch which makes a perfect pencil pouch or make up bag. I'm also thinking it would make a great hand sewing supplies pouch. Oh, the possibilities :) Last, but definitely not least, is this Keep it Ne...

mini quilted zipper pouch

 
I have a super fun little project to show you today. Hope you'll like it as much as I do.


Yes, it's a teeny tiny quilted zipper pouch. Pretty adorable, isn't it? Its finished size is 2.75" wide x 2.5" tall x 2" deep, eeek!!!


Of course I had to whip up a few of these little cuties right away. And, to my children's dismay, I squeeled more and more with every finish :).


I used 4" metal zippers and absolutely adore how much personality they add to these cuties. (I buy all my zippers from Zipit shop on etsy, they offer an amazing selection of zippers and super fast shipping)


I hope you'll come back next week. I'll have a free tutorial for you on how to make these mini quilted pouches.


Wishing you all a creative and relaxed weekend. Svetlana

Linking up to AmandaJean's Finish it up Friday.

bagmaker tuesday no.6 (waxed canvas megan tote)

I've been meaning to make myself a new handbag for a few weeks now but, once again, I found it crazily difficult to choose just the right design as well as fabric. I wanted a sturdy medium sized bag with handles and removable crossbody strap, lots of pockets, and a zipper closure. Totally doable, don't you think? Oh, and I wanted to use waxed canvas for the main body as I love its water resistant quality and beautifully "rugged" look. So, after much back and forth, I finally decided to make myself a bag based on my  Megan Foldover Tote pattern. I skipped the installation of exterior zipper pocket as suggested in the pattern and added two large slip pockets to my front exterior instead. And while I love zipper pockets, I think this option is actually better for me as I use one slip pocket for my phone and the other one for my keys and this whole set up makes my everyday running around a bit less stressful. One thing that used to stress me when working with waxed canvas...
