There is so much handwork that it turns out to take longer than I expect the handwork to be relaxing, but it takes a big needle to push the thread through the many layers.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_39604\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-39604\" style=\"width: 144px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/wp-1519101099974..jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-39604\" src=\"http:\/\/www.artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/wp-1519101099974.-144x300.jpg\" alt=\"EPP Travel Pouch Open\" width=\"144\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/wp-1519101099974.-144x300.jpg 144w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/wp-1519101099974.-768x1600.jpg 768w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/wp-1519101099974.-492x1024.jpg 492w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/wp-1519101099974.-1200x2500.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/wp-1519101099974..jpg 1633w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 144px) 85vw, 144px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-39604\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">EPP Travel Pouch Open<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The other thing is that the directions are somewhat confusing. I made notes on them this time so, if I make this again, I won\u2019t make some of the same mistakes again. The only thing that bugs me is that the piece does not have a handle. I really think it should have a handle. I am not sure where or how I would add a handle, but I&#8217;ll have to think about that.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_39815\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-39815\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/wp-15196989209471126147234.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-39815\" src=\"https:\/\/www.artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/wp-15196989209471126147234-300x295.jpg\" alt=\"EPP Pouch: Open with sewing  items\" width=\"300\" height=\"295\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/wp-15196989209471126147234-300x295.jpg 300w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/wp-15196989209471126147234-768x755.jpg 768w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/wp-15196989209471126147234-1024x1006.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/wp-15196989209471126147234-1200x1179.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 85vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-39815\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">EPP Pouch: Open with sewing items<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Still, this project comes out well and has some clever elements.<\/p>\n<p>I finished the inside of the Altoids tins to make them into little sewing kits and storage kits.
