  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. And cut the excess zipper.  I sewed the tags and inserted them in both sides of the end of the zipper and sewed along the lines. I sewed the bias tape bands on both sides.

Weekend Outfit

Hello...
I made another basic wear last week. I used the leftover fabric from my infinity scarf and I am happy that the sweatshirt matched so well with my self-drafted pencil skirt.
Spring is finally here, the weather is still foggy with high humidity but anyway... I just hope that the sun will come out one day :)

My family and I went to Fisherman's Wharf and Sands Macao for a walk yesterday and I used the opportunity to wear my outfit. After all, I like my new sweatshirt. The fabric is so soft, draped nicely and it doesn't make me sweat.

Material:
1.5 yards of knit cotton in emerald blue
thread

Pattern :
This is my third version of Moda Diana pattern no 75 -3P size 34/36 with variation. I added sleeve and hem bands. Which the final result is different than the original pattern. You can check my first and second version
The size of the sleeve band is 16cm x 8cm and the size of hem band is 90cm x 8cm. All the final results are 4cm width of bands.

The sewing process was quite fun and fast. I fold the neckline at the seam allowance inside, pin and sew it using the twin needle. And for the finished bands, I also pin, pull the band fabric and sew it using the twin needle too. You can see my work on sewing the sleeve and hem bands here in my previous post

Happy sewing!

    It's a perfect outfit for a walk. A lovely little top and I love the skirt - is that a knit as well? If so, this would be a very comfortable outfit - and very pretty as well.

      Yes, they were perfect for walk. The skirt fabric is medium cotton and I added back slit/vent to make the skirt wearable :)

    Cute outfit! I am so envious of your weather! I can't wait for the snow to melt and be able to wear bare legs and sandals again!
