Triple Zippy Success

A Quilter’s Table
After my struggle with the first triple zippy purse/pouch I decided that I would enter the  Triple Zipper Pouch Quilt Along and make another. I really enjoyed piecing my Perfect Tote bag and with some of the small leftover pieces of fabric I decided to make a patchwork triple zipper pouch, following the same techniques used in the pattern for the tote bag.

I really enjoyed putting this one together and I also decided to make it slightly bigger so that my diary and pencils could go neatly in the bigger pocket.

Sometimes when you make something you feel that there is an aspect that could be improved on. It is very rare for me not to feel as if I could of done better. This is one of those rare occasions. I love everything about this purse/pouch, from the colours, the patchwork and the way the zips went in so perfectly. I am rather proud of this creation.

Just to check that I can really do triple zipper pouches I have done a third one, again using QAYG to showpiece those lovely typewriters.

As it is also the first of the month I am linking up with Fresh Sewing Day over at Lily's Quilts. I hope that you all have a good weekend. Tomorrow, I am off to London to meet up with my bloggy friend and fellow hipBee, Catherine.
