  I made an easy make-up zipper pouch using leftover fabrics and was happy with the result. The final size was 26 cm x 12 cm. It's lovely, fluffy, useful and big enough to store all my makeup and skincare products.  Materials for the pouch: - Main fabric, lining and polyester batting, 40 cm x 50 cm. - Fabric tags (2x), 9 cm x 10 cm. - Bias tape band, 6 cm wide. - Zipper The sewing process started with topstitching (quilt style) the main fabric and polyester batting together. After that, I sewed the zipper at the main fabric (both sides). I attached and sewed the lining to the main fabric, right sides together. And then, topstitched both sides of the zipper.

Candy Tote Bag

I named this tote bag "CANDY" because she looks colourful and sweet:)
I made several bag with several colours, I think I am crazy enough to made 4 tote bags in one week. I was busy and always be, taking care my sweet little baby. I only have time to sewing when my baby napping in the afternoon.
I showed my first candy bag to my husband when he arrived home after work, and he was surprised that I could finish one bag during two hours. Woah...! Even myself was surprised!

Here I made four candy bags already but I am going to make one more. I will give all of them for my cousins in Indonesia as holiday gift. I am sure they will love it:)



The size of the bag approximately 24 cm height, 35 cm weight and 8 cm deep.
Material needed:
- Home decor fabric
- Cotton as interfacing
- Bias tape, I used bias tape from japanesse cotton.
- 56 cm ykk zipper
- Heavy duty interfacing for bottom bag



The four candy bags are really cute, isn't it? I imagine that they are real candy that I could eat it all:)
I think I am really starving for candy right now.








Well, I only posting the pictures of my project for now. I will post the pattern and tutorial another time.
