A Matching Pencil Pouch
Thank you, thank you for the positive feedback on the canvas bag I made. It always helps to have others take a look when I find a project difficult to complete. This bag was one of those projects (that lining still gives me nightmares!) So anyhow, I took Janimal and Melissa's advice and pressed and top stitched the bag. I also made a matching pencil pouch. I used Kat @ Ripping out seams' pattern for the pouch. This was my first time working with a zipper so I was a bit nervous about it, but I managed. I'm really trying not to let the different color hair bows bug me too much. I'm pretty content with the end result. What a difference those additions made to the final product. I think it's ready for Isabella's birthday next week. Thank you again for taking the time to take a look and especially for leaving your thoughts :0)

I'm so glad you didn't trash that beautiful bag!! Very often, if I spend a long time on a project and have a bit of a struggle with it, I just can't "see" it properly when it's all done and I have to get my family to decide if it's worth keeping or not!
The pencil case is beautiful. You're a talented lady and I'm really pleased I found your blog!
Oh cute cute cute pencil case. Did not even notice the different color bow, then why not a different color? it is a different 'bag'!? Congrats on the zipper! I have yet to work with one. You've given me courage! ha! Thanks! And Good Job!
That is totally girly and adorable! I think the different color bows are just fine--like each 'twin' has her own personality!
Your daughter will love them! I think the different color bows make them more personal!!
