Matryoshka Pouch
This was my first attempt at this style pouch and it came out perfect. My first attempt at this machine embroidered applique too. I will change the colors next time. I running pretty low on rayon thread colors though, so that doesn't help.
This one is made from a curtain weight fabric that I think I got from Goodwill. It's so vintage looking, not sure if it is though. I lined this one with a floral print and added a bunch of vintage buttons to one side.
I added awesome vintage embroidered ribbon to this one and a birdie applique. I love the background fabric. I've had it for years and haven't wanted to cut into it. I think the birds a little dark, but I still like it.
This is more fabric that I think I got from Goodwill. I will cry when this is gone. It has birds on it. I added some vintage twill tape. I think this is my fave.
Here's the inside. I'll be nice and share where I found the instructions to make these. It's such an easy method and looks so professional.

I have a bizilion 8" zippers so mine are sized a little different. Just adjust it to whatever size zipper you have.
Oh, and here is a hat with some super awesome vintage, printed, Goodwill corduroy.
And Leo sporting some too big leg warmers :)
The pouches will eventually be in the shop. Putting everything on sale now to clean out :)

Those pouches came out awesome! I love the one with the buttons! You really do some amazing work! And my favorite picture of all is your doggy with the leg warmers! It literally made me laugh out loud :)
Thanks for the compliments! Leo is a charmer and had the legs of a supermodel.
The pouches are all gorgeous!
Thank you Becca! :)
