This week I’ll be delivering 2 more handmade gifts.
Today, I handed over a sweet little Tilda and Cork patchwork pouch!
My friend is an interior designer and very kindly supplied me with the sample swatches I needed for my daughter’s Teacher’s present.
This is another sewing friend, so I though she might like a little pouch to keep some sewing bits and bobs in! Though when she saw she said she was in need of a new make-up pouch!
I love making projects from ‘wee bits’ – I think the cork compliments the Tilda scraps beautifully, as well as giving the pouch a sturdy and robust feel.
The exterior quilted beautifully onto Legacy Flex Foam, so while it is soft and squishy, it can stand up proud all by itself!
But what do you think of the mini pompom trim? I’m still not entirely sure if I should have added it or not!
Pompom trim or no, my friend was tickled pink with her new pouch!
I so love giving handmade gifts to friends, don’t you!
Happy gifting!
This is prefect in every way. I don’t usually like cork, no matter how trendy it is, but I do really like this pouch. I always love a bit of pom pom and Tilda fabrics are always so pretty and such good quality that you can’t go wrong with them. x
Aw you’re so sweet K! Glad you like it with the cork and mini pompoms! So relieved that my friend liked it too!
That’s lovely Judith

Thanks Pam! Hope you’re having a great summer. Jxo
