Zombies zipper pouch Lining of Zombies zipper pouch I've finally resorted to a simple zipper pouch made from two of my fabric swatches. The outside is my Zombies fabric and the lining is my Red Ink Splatter fabric. I just had to put these two fabrics together, since zombies are synonymous with blood stains.  The pouch is just big enough for carrying pencils and pens at 7". Although I do have some longer unsharpened pencils that won't fit at all.  I think I'm going to put this little darling up for sale in my Etsy shop.

Today's project is a simple fabric wallet. Just one pocket and a flap to go over it. It was super quick to make. Three pieces is all that it takes: a fabric swatch for the lining ( I used my Red Fox Stripes ), a larger black piece for the outside, and one small black piece to even out the difference between the lining and the outside fabric. I sewed the smaller black piece to the bottom edge of the lining piece. Then I put the lining and the outside piece (which were now the same size) together right sides facing and pinned them. I sewed around the edges leaving a 2" hole for turning. The corners were clipped and then the whole thing was flipped right side out and ironed. I sewed up the hole in the side with a ladder stitch. Then I folded and ironed the bottom third into place. I ran a quick whip stitch up both sides, and then ironed the top flap down. The end. That's all I did. I was thinking about putting in pockets and all that jazz, but I just felt like doing...
