Block Print Quilted Pouches


Pink Quilted Zipper Pouch


I really love Indian floral patterns, especially paisley! I have a few yards of paisley fabric in my fabric shop that I'm saving for future projects, like this zipper pouch. Just like fashion, Indian fabrics follow trends. I had only a fat quarter of this baby pink paisley left, so I decided to make something quick and easy.

When working with soft cotton fabric, I usually add interfacing, either lightweight non-woven interfacing or all-purpose woven interfacing to give it more structure. And then I added batting and quilted it. I quilted it straight line about 1/4 inch apart. The result is spacious and soft zipper pouch. The size is just perfect to keep in your bag. They are really a multi-purpose pouch, you can use it as a pencil case, glass case, makeup bag or even as a simple zipper wallet. 




Here are more pouches I made from block print fabrics. The coin pouches with keychains are my favourite to make, and they also make great gifts. My sister picked up a few to gift to her colleagues and they loved it.

I have a video tutorial in HERE showing you how to make these coin pouches from start to finish. This is a scrap-buster-friendly project since you literally only need a little bit of fabric. And if you don't sew and looking for a sustainable yet affordable gift, these quilted pouches are available in my ETSY SHOP and WEBSHOP. 


That's all for today. Thank you for stopping by!

Have a nice day :)
