With my thumb out of service after a bout of tendinitis (and
thus only limited crochet allowed), I took the sewing machine out for a spin to
fill the void. It’s shameful really how
much I’ve neglected sewing – generations of dust bunnies have made their home
on the thing, it was almost cruel to disturb them.
Time to do something with my stash of gorgeous flowery
fabric I thought. Just needed a low
effort, high reward project to get me started.
A friend suggested small pouches – I agreed…
though with one major amendment.
I wanted to put mini cats in the bags.
I’ve kept the pouches small so they’re dainty enough to be
keyrings or bag ornaments.
They’re made from a template measuring 7cm², with the
corners rounded off and a fold-down rim covering the ribbon fastening, so the
mini cat can be popped in and out of the pouch quite easily.
Am working on a basic set of instructions for the pouch and
cat. Will post soonish I hope.
