One of the patterns I used to make holiday gifts was the Stella Pouch<\/a> from Center Street Quilts<\/a>. I have made a couple of these before. One was for a swap<\/a> and one was my contribution to Laura’s gift basket<\/a>. I got excited about this pattern when I saw the video<\/a> with a half vinyl version. I also like the ability to see the fabulous prints used for the lining.<\/p>\n

I made three of these for the holidays. There are no specific directions for using vinyl or adding a Flying Geese strip, as Katrina shows in the version linked above. It isn’t difficult to change substrates or add some Flying Geese, but I forgot the Flying in all three pouches! I’m annoyed because foundation paper piecing, in general, takes me forever and I worked hard at getting these strips done for these specific gifts. Oh well. I’ll make some more of these pouches and add the Flying Geese to them.<\/p>\n

The other thing I did just to add a bit of flair was use some of my Renaissance Ribbon as the pull tab. I am not sure how practical it will be. I need to start using my ribbon and this was as good a start as any.<\/p>\n

The one thing I need to do differently was the zipper end. It was very thick and hard to turn. I talked to Mary about it and probably need to trim more around the zipper. Another good reason to make more of these.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
