Using Bridget’s Bagettes’ pattern by Atkinson Designs, purchased at Quilting Adventures, I made this bagette to carry supplies to my Liberated Quilting Group, which I attend at a different quilt shop, Blue Crab Quilt Co.
I couldn’t stop there. I bought a yard of vinyl ($5.50 a yard) and some more zippers. I made a Project Pouch to store my improv blocks and “parts” for the Liberated Quilting Group:
I had an idea for more storage — pouches in every color for my small scraps:
I attached them to my design wall with pins:
I like how they look on the wall –instant art.
WHAT I LEARNED MAKING THESE:
1. Don’t forget to pull the zipper into the middle before you cut off the ends. I did this twice.
2. You don’t need a walking foot but the seams might be a little wonky if you don’t.
3. I didn’t have fusible woven interfacing and used two layers of batting instead. This worked fine.
You’ve just put me to shame. I also have my scraps sorted by colour but mine are in sandwich bags. I love the way you have hung the pouches on the wall 🙂

Sometimes I think I spend more time organizing my scraps than sewing them, but they do look nice on the design wall.

Great idea! Better then keeping scraps in boxes – like me.
