Hi there, Jenifer here with you today to share a cute little turtle applique zip pouch with you. If you didn't know I absolutely love
Cori Dantini prints from Blend and I tend to be a bit of a hoarder but when the assignment for Sea Life Week came up I knew exactly what to do and what collection to use.

Turtle Zipper Pouch Instructions:
All seams are stitched at ¼”
Read all instructions before beginning
Step 1: adhere your applique to the desired outside fabric and stitch around.
Step 2: attach your zipper.
Step 3: sew the sides and bottom.
Step 4: cut a one inch square at the bottom corners and then matching seams sew across the line you just cut.
Tip: Before this last step make sure your zipper is unzipped partially so that you can turn your pouch right side out.
Now you are done :)
Don't you just love the mermaids and the turtles?
This would be a fun little pouch to take to the beach, or to put your makeup in or to hold little things that end up at the bottom of your purse.
