Good morning! I wish you could smell my blossoming gardenias wafting through this video. I went overboard on this one. Painted triangles, patchwork, and lots of hand stitching. Way way way too much fun. Which pouch panel speaks to you most?















Clean. Crisp. Oddly relaxing. These small samplers might show up as pouch pockets? Do you hand stitch?

Another way to transfer your stitching patterns to dark fabric is to use a self-adhesive, water-solvable stabilizer. I create my design on my laptop, print the stabilizer sheet, stitch, soak in water and watch it vanish leaving only my stitches. Magic. From . .

It worked! Thank you Arounna for your video on creating your own stencils for fabric painting. Now I can create just the fabric I envision for my pouches. This bag will have a complementary geometric design stitched on another panel.

We live in an aviary. Hear them? I call this my Au Revoir Covid Pouch. This cherry, breezy rice pouch pays a bittersweet homage to our mask-wearing days. Do you detect the Dragonfly mask template—cut but unused? It makes a lovely pocket for your goodies.

French ticking, small ginghams, tulips and cherry blossoms. Many new fabrics from , my first (wonderful) experience with them.

This bag is sewn entirely Quilt As You Go with my mother-in-law’s 1957 Singer 401A Slant-o-matic.

Garden Pouch- This drawstring bag or pouch is ideal as a project bag -- knitting, sewing, etc.) or go-anywhere bag. These four panels feature the gorgeous hand-printing of Sara Parker's textiles. I have embellished bits with embroidery and appliquéd her (Georgia) Thrasher bird. You will see examples of sashiko stitching (the diagonals,) and Kaku-Shippo over-stitched on the gray leaves. The anchor panel is done by quilt-as-you-go. I used an organic linen for the lining and contrasting cotton for the drawstring tabs.
Seams ore pinked and double sewn. The bag is topstitched on the opening edge, and the lining is tacked in the corners. Many hours (lovingly) go into producing this 7 x 7" pouch. Fabrics . Pattern by Karen Stevens, copyright @2018. Materials from . Available online at whirlywraps.com.
