Triple-Zip Pouch #4

Hi. My name is Grandma G. I am a triple-zip pouch addict.

And there's the proof. Pouch #4 from this tutorial. Can I help it they're so fun to make?

This one was a test, of sorts. I just wanted to see if sewing with interfaced quilting cotton was much easier, especially for turning the corners, than with the home dec weight fabric I used for the other three. Conclusion: it did make turning the corners 'slightly' easier, but not enough to be worth the extra time and effort to cut and fuse interfacing, in my opinion. I also thought it might make sewing over the thicknesses of the tabs, etc., at the ends of the zippers easier, but it didn't help much. I think my zipper foot is just kinda fussy about that.

All in all, I think I prefer the home dec weight fabric, but just by a little. I like the fabric combination on this pouch. They're all from Michelle Bencsko's Shade Garden.

Will/can I give up making those pouches? That remains to be seen. I have no plans for any more at the moment. However, it might be fun to try other sizes, so I may have to experiment someday.......
