I had never made a glue-in metal frame pouch and I knew I wanted to make one for my Pretty {little} Pouch Swap--so, of course, I had to make a practice pouch! I made my own template for my 8x3 metal frame. You can download my template HERE!!! I used the tutorial found here. The only thing I did differently was to use fusible fleece on my exterior and light-weight woven interfacing on my interior. Oh, and I got my frames and glue here. I used an old Anna Maria Horner Garden Party fabric for the outside and a Little Folks Dobby stripe voile for the inside. I have something a bit more elaborate planned for my partner, but, for a first attempt, I'm happy with how this came out!
In other news, I did finish my next MBS project! Unfortunately, I can't share it yet! I love it so much more than my first version! I guess that's all for now, I need to get back to my next pouch. I'll leave you with a picture of my cute babies, who aren't so little any more!
Great pouch! Doesn't look like a practice piece though. It looks perfect!
