Martha came up trumps in the Crafty Cooks Swap, when a swapper let her partner down, so this was my chance to repay her in a small way for her generosity. A sewing-themed Hexiecase, as I know that a girl can never have too many pouches :)
The pattern for the case is by Amy from During Quiet Time and is available in her Etsy shop. The pouch is really straightforward to put together and is a great way to use up fabric scraps. I made life harder for myself by using fusible fleece for the interfacing, which made attaching the hexagons at each end more of a challenge, but other than that it was a dream to make.
This is the third Hexiecase I have made and they have all been a cinch to put together. The blue one in the photo above is currently in use as my make-up bag. It holds a deceptively large amount for its' size. Fortunately, it was not in the vanity case when it came into contact with the crane :)
So this is my Friday Finish which I am linking up to Crazy Mom Quilts
Fiona your hexiecases are lovely.
ReplyDeleteGreat cases Fiona, I'm sure Martha will love hers and doesn't she just take the best photos?! :)
ReplyDeletethat is a fab pouch! I'm off to see these amazing photos, can't imagine they'd be better than my mini-works-of-art... (yes, I know, a dog turd is better than my photos...)

I really like the shape of these pouches, Fiona. Not only do they look great, but the zipper's not attached to the corners, which sometimes makes it hard to get nice corners. As always, I like your fabric choices.
ReplyDeleteWhat a good idea, that hexie case. Yours look wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI've seen these and love them. Yours is darling! I need to add this to my "must sew" list! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat idea. Love your wonderful hexie case.

ReplyDeleteThanks Yvonne, the pouches are great for using up scrap fabric strips.

ReplyDeleteGreat case selection :o) BTW, if you use fusible fleece, cut it out without seam allowances, it'll all go together nicely then :o)
