I have had this <a href=\"https:\/\/aquilterstable.blogspot.com\/2012\/08\/triple-zip-pouch-tutorial.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Triple Zip pouch pattern<\/a> waiting around for 7 years. I thought it might be a good quick go-to gift pattern I could make over and over. I haven&#8217;t found such a thing and hope springs eternal.<\/p>\n<p>Kelly Orr and I talked about this pouch years ago and she gave me the zippers to use before she moved away. I have had them segregated out from my other zippers all this time.<\/p>\n<p>I know I didn&#8217;t tell you that I started this project. I started cutting on Saturday and nearly finished it by Saturday evening. I had one more seam to finish sewing on Sunday, then turning it and done!<\/p>\n<p>The pattern doesn&#8217;t have a lot of pieces, but they do need to be labelled. I didn&#8217;t do that and was somewhat confused. The pattern requires careful attention, especially to the renaming of the zippers part way through the project. Labeling the pieces can reduce this confusion.<\/p>\n<p>If I made this again, I would omit the fusible fleece on the top of the project (where the yellow dot fabric is in my pouch). It made turning the project a little difficult and the top too thick for my taste.<\/p>\n<p>I was also confused about the finishing. I think I did ok, but the top of the inside still has some raw edges. They are less than an inch and don&#8217;t show, but I am concerned that there will be unraveling. I am unclear whether I finished the inside correctly. I also wonder if there is a different way to finish the inside. I plan to send the extra pattern I printed to Lynette to see what she thinks.<\/p>\n<p>I also added a leash, which I always like to do for pouches.<\/p>\n<p>A Quilter&#8217;s Table had a sew-along for this pouch and the <a href=\"https:\/\/aquilterstable.blogspot.com\/2013\/02\/zipping-in.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">post<\/a> showed over 70 pouches! She also has a <a href=\"https:\/\/aquilterstable.blogspot.com\/search\/label\/Triple-Zip%20Pouch\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">tag<\/a> in which you can see many other Triple Zips as well as links to others doing classes and other sew-a-longs with the pattern. It is very popular!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Friday, I spent some time looking through all the patterns I have collected to see if there was a quick project that would inspire me.
