The triple Zip Pouch!

I was visiting some of my favorite blogs and discovered that many of them are participating to a Triple Zip Along, when I saw the beautiful creations they have done, I decided to participate.
In this sew along we will create a pouch with three zippers, I love the idea. The instructions are on Debbie's blog,
"A quilter's table" and are excellent.

Here is the one I did


I tried to combine this Triple sew along with a course I took in craftsy, and that is why I finished this project, almost at the last minute, let me tell you.
The first step in this triple pouch is choosing fabrics, I started selecting these fabrics.




But I was taking an online course in Craftsy, the course is called Stupendous Stitching with Carol Ann Waugh.A course that fills us with inspiration, I'll write here her description of the course:

Set your sewing machine and imagination free in this fun exploration of embroidery designs, decorative sewing machine stitches, couching and binding. In Stupendous Stitching, you’ll learn how to incorporate all kinds of stitches into your next fiber art project.

Here I give you the link in case any of you want to have more information.

Was thus that I decided transform one of my fabrics:
from this
 
to this
 
 
My final selection of fabrics for making my pouch
 
 
 
It is not necessary to participate in this Triple sew along to get the tutorial, here I'll give you links to Debbie's blog.
The tutorial is divided into three parts
 
The first part is here
The second part is here
The third part is here
 
 
and thanks to the collaboration of Marci from Marci Girl Design, there is now a new tutorial where she explains a different way to finish up those pouches
here is the link
 
 
The first tutorial to make this triple zip pouch was made ​​by Debbie last year and always left me wanting to participate, the link to the first tutorial, complete, all in one post  is here on her blog A Quilter's table
 
 
What I did was print the first tutorial she has done in August last year, and then complete all the information with the other three tutorials that she created this year.
 
The flickr group where all participants are adding their photos are here
 
I can assure you that you are going to be delighted watching all these beautiful creations, you will find not just any photos, there are also discussions, links to other sites, really interesting to visit.
 
I think I have given a lot of information, I hope you find it useful.
Here I leave you with more pictures of my triple zip pouch.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
I hope you liked my Triple Zip pouch, always remember that I love to
receive your comments, it is you who give me the inspiration to create.
 
Have a happy sewing day!

  12. The bag looks wonderful and nice to hear that you enjoyed the Craftsy class. I had heard negatives before. Maybe it depends on what level you are when taking the class. I enjoy all your projects that you post. They really serve as a lot of motivation to get some things completed.

  27. I've also taken the Stupendous Stitching class and so enjoyed it. I made a bag for my bicycle and a wall hanging so far. I like your 3-zipper pouch and will make one soon. I've been having fun using those decorative stitches that I had no idea what to do with before.
