More Holland Pouches by Centerstreet Quilts! I love making them, but honestly.... I was making too many at a time to really enjoy the process.
One of my favorite steps of making these pouches, is choosing the fabric, the trim and the zippers and zipper pulls. I used to stress about what fabric to use as the lining, but it really isn't very visible.I chose the Cotton and Steel squirrel fabric for Charlotte (12) because she thinks squirrels are cute and yellow is her favorite color. I should really make one for myself because I am like a squirrel. I get distracted very easily but to my defense, am always am able to finish my tasks :)
I chose this cute Japanese fabric for Lucy (9) because she loves all stuffed animals and her favorite color is red.
I chose this Japanese fabric of tins of meat for Bridger (17) because he loves bright colors and his favorite color is green.
This bag is for my daughter, Lindsay. I call it a fashion designer bag and it has an Eiffel Tower zipper pull, and the fabric is Japanese.
This bag is for my son in law Jeremy. It's the most masculine/cute fabric I have. The fabric is Cotton and Steel.
This fabric is Girl Power by Riley Blake and is for Kennedy (15). Her favorite color is green, hence the green m&m zipper pull. This fabric is so her with all the girls and their sunglasses, lol!
That's it for all my Holland Pouches for now. I would prefer making only one or two at a time from now on. I really do love them!
Oh, and I made each of my grandchildren who visited at Christmas a pillow case, the burrito style, tutorial here.
I just love all the details you include in your Holland Pouches - right down to the zipper pull. They are so super cute - as are the pillow cases you made. Beautifully done. Hope you make one for yourself, with the squirrel fabric, just for fun :)! Happy New Year, dear friend!
