A few months ago, Angela organized a swap for the guild. The rules were that we were to use a pattern that we had been wanting to try. As mentioned in the post about what I made, I used one of the Minikins patterns.

Since our guild meetings are on Zoom now, we all took turns opening them on ‘camera’ one at a time. Cheryl was selected to make me something and she made me a POUCH! I told you it was pouch week here at AQ!

Yes, a pouch and it matches the pouch that Angela made for me several months ago, which I use for work.
How do you like that bird (cardinal??) on the front? I love it! He looks sassy. I don’t know why I think of it as a ‘he’.

This is a really nice wide mouth pouch. It will be really good for a small knitting project or some EPP or something that needs some space, but not a lot of tools. There aren’t any internal pockets, but I think that is ok.
One really nice thing is that there is some corduroy fabric included in the piecing. It is so soft! I want to stroke the corduroy parts of the pouch.
Perhaps I will use it for my bias tape makers? It’s a little big, but I have it available.
