When Yours Truly needs a break from longarming and piecing (um, yes, I just said that), Yours Truly makes a quilted zipper pouch.
Even better when I have leftovers, just stuff around the studio, to make it happen.
The pattern can be found here: https://www.sleepyhouse-studio.com/products/rainbow-sherbet-pouch-pdf-pattern

Super great YouTube tutorial that accompanies the pattern from She Sews Seams' YouTube Channel.
(Side Note: Thanks to Chelsea, channel owner and curator, for reminding us that buying a pattern from a designer helps them support their business. And oh, it's kind of legal and ethical too).

The front of my bag was left over pre-quilted fabric from a bag class I had taken from Pat and Zelda at the shop.

Zippers used were from all the left over zipper pieces and parts Pam, my sewing specialist, had left over after making the MK Quilts Zipper systems for our longarms.

The lining, left over Handi Quilter leader fabric. You know from the gobs of leaders I have collected over my 18 year career.

Backing was a quick piece of music fabric I had around because I only had enough of the left over pre-quilted fabric for the front.

The pattern is great. Kept that and the YouTube video up while I sewed. Size can be adjusted easily to fit your needs.

On mine, the front was pre-quilted on foam. The back (music print) was quilted on MKFinity 2.0 with a scrap of backing and 2 layers of cotton batting.

Ok, now back to longarming on my Sunday, Fun Day, Sew Day.
MK 🙂
