What Do I Do With My Scraps? Make This, Of Course!

Hello all,

I discovered a fun sewing project recently. It consumes scraps and turns them into useful items for yourself or great gifts for others! 

Enter the Zipper Pouch. 

I made a few of these for Christmas and let me tell you, it was good practice working with zippers, which are a sore spot for me ;) 

These pouches are a relatively fast sewing project that you can accomplish without taking too much upon yourself.

If you are a very detail-observant reader of this blog, you might recognize this dark blue fabric from my 1830's dress. 

This one was made with fabric pieces and lace given to me by a friend. I like the look of a bead string attached to the zipper pull.

You can develop or practice quilting/patchwork skills in a small project like this.

I monogrammed the back of this one...can you spot the letter?

Well, that's all for today...Enjoy your January!

to God be the glory,

Miss Humphrey
