This is going to show more of the essential oil / make-up pouches that I’ve sewn. Which by the way, sold two the next day. Thanks so much for your support.
Below are how they look like inside and out.
Next would make them without the insert for those who likes it empty inside. And another one is to catch up with the Minikins 100 day challenge which I’m lagging behind so much. I’m not even 10% done!
Sew happy that weekend is coming..yay!
Managed to sewed up a make-up pouch and a document holder today for customers, which actually consider custom made products.
One is a make-up pouch which can also serve as a pouch to store essential oils in the size of 5ml bottles. I’ve made 12 slots all in all. So this pouch is actually being used to house almost all the small items in her handbag.
Another one that I managed to get it done is a document / books holder, which also custom made.
Sew happy you have stopped over here… hope you have a great week.
This is one of the request with the specific outer fabric. Some more below..
But, let me show you the lining first..
striking colour and and huge contrast with the outer fabric.
Well… The next two are the same pattern. Still, I wanted to show them off here and hopefully not too soon and kill the surprise, cos they’re going to be used as gifts.
I’m crossing my fingers now that I need to prepare for a hand made market in November. Hoping to make more handmade before than and hopefully it is well taken by the market then.
More sunshine wristlet pouch to show.
Did these using all my favourite fabrics. One of these is an order from colleague who loves pink…so, you know which already?
One is using fabric that was brought back from a dear friend all the way from Texas.. now… That’s previous, right?
Below are two that’s made by fabric that I bought online. Love how they turn out.
Thanks to bagstock who offer this pattern online.
Happy weekend!
Yes, this is the name of the pouch from Sara Lawson’s minikins. Yes, it looks like a mini gym bag or doess bag. So it is entirely up to you what your wanna put inside.
This pattern is like an origami piece that join together with minimal sewing but careful maneverm on the stitch line. So far, this is my second favourite pattern after the cotton candy pouch.
I tried to use different fabric in one pouch. It is not showing in the picture above, there are actually with PU leather bottom.
It is very roomy inside, which I’ve add a slip on pocket on each of the Zeppelin pouch.
There are still lot more other patterns that I haven’t tried in the minikins. Have been attracted by the Sunshine wristlet recently and it is very much welcome by my friends…
Happy sewing and have a great week ahead.
Yes, order done and delivered!
Thanks so much to Bagstock Design for having such a beautiful pattern.
Don’t you just love that floral print fabric?
I appreciate the love and support from friends who likes my sewing projects. I hope handmade can bring them joy.
Happy sewing !
More minikins from Sara Lawson. This time is a moto pouch.. it looks like those pencil case that you can get from stationary shops. Except this one is the one and only, in the world!! Yay… LOL
I’ve been having the minikins patterns for some time now.. almost 3 months ago! And yet only now then I venture into making this minikin – Moto Pouch. It is quite an adventure. Sure enough that I’m going to make more of this using different pattern.
I personally prefer fun and bright fabric. Finger crossed that I’ll see nice fabric and hopefully affordable ones that won’t cost a dent in my wallet.
I’ll have more pouches from Minikins to show after this.. ‘cos I’m joining the 1 bag a day for 100 days. However I might just add in other patterns that is not from SewSweetness. Watch out for that.
Have a great day you all..
Been busy lately trying to catch up with the a bag a day challenge which started on 1st August over at Sew Sweetness FB group.
Above picture shown the cotton candy pouch in Large. I’ve changed a little bit in its design by adding vinyl at the bottom part. I’ve also added side D-ring for strap if I were to make it. However it turns out that I need way more fabric than I thought to make a handle.
The pattern call for a normal skirt or zip #3 but I’ve used a zip# 5 here.
I’ve tried using the smaller zipper on the other cotton candy pouch, and it is ok though. However, I’m going to use zip #3 more often now.
You can check out the pattern at SewSweetness.dot
Happy seeing you all..0
Hello there.. is this clutch / wristlet pattern beautiful? You can choose not to use the wristlet ‘cos you can hold it by slipping into the strap in the middle part of the pouch. Well.. the pattern also taught you how to do a wristlet. Some sewer chose to just do one of the version.
There are so many option and result over in the net. You can check out insta with the hashtag sunshinewristlet or the link here.

OMG! There are so many craft idea online!! Bags, using cotton, using jeans materials, using PU, leather, cork fabric.. Gosh! I’m overwhelm! Where should I start!??
I’ve got those patterns ready, those fabric ready but still there are always some more new pattern comes up, new fabric and new ideas that pop into my head. Where do I start!?
I know the techniques, I know how to sew them up, but there are always better ways to join them together, to combine this materials with another, to sew it better, faster and more professional looking. So… which one should I be looking at? Where do I start?
There is this websites that I can check, to get ideas. There is another website that I can get free pattern, pattern on sales, pattern that I can just download after payment, pattern with videos. OMG, where do I start?
Okay, Hannie.. you’ll just have to start somewhere, stop thinking too much, just do it!
