Trixie Zip Pouch
This adorable triangular-shaped zipper pouch finishes at 8” wide x 3” high x 3-3/4” deep. Great little bag for notions, thread, even eyeglasses, and makes great gifts. Starts with a 12-1/2” square of exterior fabric, Soft & Stable, and interior lining fabric; all pre-quilted together. You can choose either a 3mm or a 4.5mm zipper (my preference). You can use up favorite fabrics from your stash, or maybe give an old orphan block a new home.

Pre-class Homework:
Complete all instructions on page 1.
Cut out pieces -
NOTE: I cut the two smaller closing strip bindings at 2-1/4” x 4-3/4”
Make Pouch Exterior: quilt together 12-1/2” square of exterior fabric, Soft & Stable, and interior lining fabric. Use your walking foot to quilt ¾” or 1” horizontal lines or criss-cross lines as described in instructions.
DO NOT cut out, we will cut out in class – I have a “lesson learned” you won’t want to repeat.
You might want to make a full-size pattern template out of Freezer Paper.
Please have a good knowledge of your sewing machine.
