It is also, for me, the worst part. I often make two of a pouch or bag at the same time. Cutting out two&nbsp; of each piece at one time doesn&#8217;t seem to be that much harder than cutting out one. That is how I made this pouch. I decided on the spur of the moment to make the same pouch for Lil Sissy for Christmas that I was making for myself. I didn&#8217;t think really hard about the fabric. I grabbed this Alison Glass fabric, which is super cheerful, IMO, and for which I hadn&#8217;t yet found a use.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_54607\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-54607\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211203_175043_wm-sm.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-54607\" src=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211203_175043_wm-sm-300x229.jpg\" alt=\"Lil Sissy's Inside Outside Pouch - 3\/4s view\" width=\"300\" height=\"229\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211203_175043_wm-sm-300x229.jpg 300w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211203_175043_wm-sm-768x587.jpg 768w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211203_175043_wm-sm.jpg 886w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 85vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-54607\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lil Sissy&#8217;s Inside Outside Pouch &#8211; 3\/4s view<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>I am on the fence about whether I should have used a different fabric for the zipper plackets. I have trouble figuring out where pieces are going to go and most independent pattern makers don&#8217;t really tell you beyond naming the piece. I think using the same fabric on this pouch looks fine. If I used fabric like the <a href=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/2021\/12\/finished-inside-outside-pouch\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Dripping Rose<\/a> again, I would probably use different fabric. The motifs get broken up too much.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_54605\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-54605\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211203_174934_wm-sm.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-54605\" src=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211203_174934_wm-sm-300x144.jpg\" alt=\"Lil Sissy's Inside Outside Pouch - interior\" width=\"300\" height=\"144\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211203_174934_wm-sm-300x144.jpg 300w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211203_174934_wm-sm-768x369.jpg 768w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/20211203_174934_wm-sm.jpg 896w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 85vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-54605\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lil Sissy&#8217;s Inside Outside Pouch &#8211; interior<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>I picked a specific inside for this pouch, because it is for my sister.
