The finished zipper pouch measures approximately 9½" x 7¾", with this easy, beginner friendly kit. NO CUTTING NECESSARY — GO & SEW! Each kit includes exclusive fabric, featuring a photo of a Whole Circle Studio quilt (Big Island Sunset, Big Island Sky, Paws Up! or Journeys Aren't Straight Lines) printed on high-quality 100% cotton twill. Enjoy the style of a pre-quilted look — I’ve already taken care of the quilting texture for you. But of course, if you’d like, you can always layer your own quilting on top. Enjoy a quick and easy sewing experience, making an accessory that’s not only beautiful but useful. Make it for yourself or to gift to a friend.
This project is perfect for the beginner sewist or those who have zipper jitters. Included in these kits are an easy-to-follow illustrated instruction booklet along with a link to a free online zipper pouch video mini-class that you can sew along with.
If you don't have a kit and are sewing with your own fabric, I started with pieces that measured approximately 10½" x 8⅝" and used a #4.5 9" zipper.
