I actually made a sale! A friend of mine wanted a necklace, bracelet and belt for her little Daniella but she doesn't live in Lethbridge. I didn't want to just throw the items in an envelope and mail them so I made up a real quick pouch for them all.
I cut a piece of felt into a rectangle and then used my pinking shears to cut the short edges so it'd be decorative.
Then I folded the felt in half lengthwise and sewed it. I was going to hand sew it so I didn't have to pull out my machine but about 4 stitches in I changed my mind and decided it would be so much quicker to machine shew.
I trimmed the corners so it would turn nicely and then turned it so my seams were iniside.
For a tie I wove embroidery thread through and then knotted the ends.
I put in her items, sinched it closed and wrapped around a couple times. A bow would have been cuter but I ddin't leave enough thread. Sort of plain but it got the job done. I slipped in in an envelope and dropped it in the mail.
Hope she loves them!
