Three Pouchettes and A Bag

Recently I borrowed a book from the library called "Fat Quarter Bags". Fat quarters are basically small pieces of fabrics, usually a metre of cloth cut into 4 quarters. They are useful for making small projects and this book uses them exclusively to create different designs of bags.

I was inspired enough to attempt 2 of the designs - one for pouchettes (which I made 3) and the other a swag bag.


First Attempt using left over half-triangle squares from making baby quilt




2nd pouchette

 
3rd and most satisfied pouchette using scrap fabric from a bed sheet and track pant. Gave this to my sister since material came from her.
