Snap Pouch -- I made it!
I used the cut-off triangles from the bag I made last night to make HSTs and then sewed them together to make a little pouch (about 5" by 4.5"). The top of it has pieces cut from a metal carpenter's tape measure in the casing, so that when you open the pouch, it will snap closed again.

A neat use for an old tape measure! I saw one of these at one of the vendors's booths at a quilt show I was at recently. Yours are very stylish in black and white.
ReplyDeleteWell how cute is that!!!! Just what I need...another idea in the to do list!!
ReplyDeleteGreat purse, cute little pouch, but your clever idea to snap closed is waaaay coool!
ReplyDeleteLove it - wish I had thought of using a metal measuring tape. I'm off to raid my DHs tool box.
ReplyDeleteGreat project!
ReplyDeleteOh, I want to make one! Is there a tutorial in the making? And what's with that monopoly money in the last photo? ;)
ReplyDeletewhat a great way to use up snippets! I have been teaching a class at my local quilt shop using the pattern by The Stitch'n Sisters. I asked my readers to send me Owl fabric for a special project I am working on, in return I sent them this pouch as a thank you gift. it was very well recieved. (mauh) Liz
