Zipper Pouch 2.1

Today I began and completed Zipper Pouch 2.1. I don't know exactly how long I worked on it but less than the afternoon.

The fabric is 2 fat quarters from Michael's. The purple zipper, the last I had, is from WalMart. The fusible fleece interfacing for the exterior is from Amazon.

I used the same fabric for the lining as for the exterior.

In this one, the zipper actually works. There are some other structural flaws that result in a bit of a wonky pouch but all in all I am happy with this version of a bag with boxed corners, a zipper with no tabs, a sewn-in lining, and no raw edges.

As the chef said to his apprentice, "If at first you don't fricassee, fry fry again."
