For my mother

Idea taken from Here.

Pouches

As per my sister's request, I made this pouches in tule. As she is accepting orders for brooches, she thought that it make prettier to give to "her clients" the brooches inside a nice pouche.

So, she asked mt to do it. She gave the tule (I believe that was leftovers from some curtains). First I did one in pink tule very olde to experiment.

Then I found out that if i did the zig-zag stitch very thight in the hem of the fabric, it would look very nice.

So, I decided to play with colours and sewn every pouch with one different colour.

The request was only for 3, but I managed to make one extra.

Here they are.

In my sister's blog you can already see the brooches inside the pouches. However, I post a photo of the same.

Embroidered Pouch

As woman as I am, I have a plastic pouch to keep all the "papers" that I have together in my purse.
This plastic pouch I brought it from my previous job, and it already needed a replacement. I decided to do one in fabric. I used a not very thick denim and I embroidered a flower.
Here it is.

Detail of the embroidery. I found the drawing in the web, on this site.

Here is the drawing.

Close it, I put a velcro tape.

And inside, as lining, I used leftovers of the fabric that I used to do the tunic of BOWF.

Here's the inside with the "paper junk" inside it.

It was a simples and easy project to do. As the weekend was very tiring, and I was with a terrible headache, I decided to do a simple thing.
