Hello cute people!
I have something fun to share with you today:)
I am sew excited about the
and I decided that I needed
just one more thing
before it starts!
As you know...
my last post was all about
cutting your pie slices...
daisies...appliques...
interfacing...and borders.
if you missed that post:)
Remember that I told you
I would have
more fun projects along the way?
Well you can bet that
I have a few things planned
that will be perfect
for playing with our
remaining fabrics
after you are finished cutting
for the quilt.
For this cute little project
I grabbed one of these
leftover fat quarters...
To use for the lining in my new
Quilty Zip Pocket!
I need something cute
to hold my
and other necessities
for the sew along:)
Do you remember the tutorial for this
Quilty Zip Pocket?
I did it during my
Farm Girls Fridays Sew Along
and I have made
so many more since then!
They are super duper easy to make
and I promise it's the
easiest zipper that you
will ever sew...
perfect for zipper beginners!
to go to my tutorial
and follow it to make one
of your very own
Quilty Zip Pockets
out of Sew Cherry 2!
***FYI***
I made one simple change
to my tutorial for this pocket.
See below...
Instead of making a 6" block
and adding borders to measure 8 1/2"
I replaced it with a 16 patch block
that measures 8 1/2" unfinished.
I cut 16 - 2 1/2"
scrappy squares ...
and sewed them together.
Easy Peasy!!
Then I cut the rest of the pieces
exactly the same as my tutorial.
And just like that I have a super cute
Sew Cherry 2
Quilty Zip Pocket!!
I love how sweet the inside lining print
looks with the patchwork front:)
There's plenty of room
in this pocket to hold
the notions and tools
that I'll be using every week
during the
I can't wait!!!
On Monday I'll be showing you
something else
that I'm making with
the rest of the prints:)
Until then...
stay cute and happy!
