DIY Make-Up Zipper Pouch

  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.

Make A Garment A Month - December plan...

Hello lovely readers! I am so sorry for my absence, I am still here sewing some stuff but I haven't had time to update the blog post.
So, today I'd love to share a quick update of my December plan for MAGAM challenge. I have chosen my pattern, fabric and nations. It will be a simple but pretty party dress for me to wear on Christmas dinner.
For the pattern, I will use Burdastyle Embellished Tunic Dress 11/2013 size 34 with adjustments on the neckline, waist and hips.
For the fabric, I will use 2 yards of med weight knit ponte in black color that more than three years stay inside my stash and as I don't have passementerie trim, I will sew some pearls on the front slit and neck edge.

 
Have a lovely and creative Monday to you all!

    I guess you have been busy with your little boy. I'd like to take this opportunity to wish you a Happy Xmas and blessings for the New Year.
