Sew A Large Canvas Zipper Beach Pouch

in Bags and Pouches on 20/06/17

I love sunscreen. At the beach I follow my family, friends and all the kids around and apply sunscreen. On most sunny days, I cart around so many bottles of the stuff that I often tell myself I need a cute zipper pouch to carry it all.

I usually make small pouches, but this time around I decided to try something over-sized. I love how big it is!

Materials:

  1. Cotton Canvas for the exterior
  2. Cotton canvas or fabric for the lining and zipper tab
  3. Zipper
  4. Twill tape for the strap
  5. Cutting machine and supplies
  6. Heat transfer vinyl
  7. Sewing machine and supplies
  8. Iron and ironing board

To make the simple pattern:

  • Cut 2 rectangles – 13.5″ L x 11.5″ W out of the exterior fabric.
  • Make the boxed corners –  cut a 2″ x 2″ square from one corner along the 13.5″ side. Repeat for the other side.
  • Place one of the pieces on top of your lining fabric. Use as a template and cut 2 pieces for the lining.
  • Cut a 10″ strip from the twill tape.

Don’t you love the word “beach” that I added in red heat transfer vinyl? Without the HTV it would be a boring canvas pouch. I bought the design from the Silhouette Design Store.

I added a contrast zipper and a zipper tab at one end – this creates a very wide zipper opening. The best part – this pouch can hold more than 6 bottles of sunscreen! I even had enough room for a soft gauze baby blanket.

Want to make zipper pouches, but don’t know were to start? I have you covered and offer a bunch of tutorials to get you started:

  1. Curvy zipper pouch
  2. Reusable shopping bag pouch
  3. Fabric and vinyl see-thru pouch
  4. Velcro ribbon pouches

By the way – I launched my online pattern store this March. My curvy zipper pouch has been very popular and you can purchase the pattern there. I also have 2 free patterns – the reversible 1 hr tote and a collapsable fabric bowl.

That’s it for today. Let me know if you have any questions. Happy Sewing!

I have a drawer where I keep all of my block print I have a drawer where I keep all of my block printed papers and have often wondered.. “What the heck do I do with all of these”.

How about you?

I recently found a bunch of  tutorials over at @modpodgerocks and thought it would be fun to make wood coasters with my block prints. They turned out better than expected and so I thought to share with you.

Want more info? I created a blog post. See the link in my profile for the blog post and details.

I’m sharing about how to frame your block printe I’m sharing about how to frame your block printed fabric on my blog today. Day 26/100 #100dayproject 

If you have ever thought you would like to learn how to block print… I have a course for you. It is called Block Printing Made Easy. It is all about the basics - working with simple shapes, design prompts and getting creative on paper and fabric.

This is an online course and starts on Monday, May 30. There are 3 modules with videos and also included in the course are 3 live zoom workshops. The videos are self paced, so the good news is you can cruise through them or take all the time you need.

The course is $97 USD.

See the link in my profile for additional details on the course( breakdown on each module) and to also access to my blog post.

I’ve got one more triangle print to share and I I’ve got one more triangle print to share and I think that’s a wrap. Simple and easy. The pin cushion on that right that was gifted to me from my grandmother Mor Mor really takes the stage in my opinion 

The circle shape is next. I’m excited to work with no corners and see what will unfold.

A mash up of triangle stamps I created so far duri A mash up of triangle stamps I created so far during the #100dayproject.
 
Who knew the triangle shape could be so much fun? I have had a blast the last playing around with it - both dissecting the shape and putting it back together. 

Which one is your favorite?

I can’t believe I am saying this, but Im ready to move on to a new shape. One that is more soft and organic. Next up, the circle!
