Hey Everyone! Last week I was trying to decide which tutorial to film next. My plan was to do a crochet tutorial, but I was worried I wouldn’t get it done in time (crochet tutes take forever!). I was looking at my fabric and thought… Oh my goodness! I need to do a back to school tutorial! So that is how this pencil pouch idea came to me. Don’t worry, the crochet video is next! I have done a lot of zip pouches in the past, so I added a zipper tab to show you a little different technique.
Isn’t this fabric fab! I’m a huge Cotton and Steel Fan
This is a great pencil or pen pouch, but it would also be great for paint brushes, colored pencil or other longer items.
This zipper pouch tutorial shows you 1 way to add zipper tabs.

Happy Stitching!

Thanks so much! This tutorial was perfect! I needed to make my daughter an oversized pencil bag and couldn't find one large enough in stores or online. This was sooo easy to follow! I love it!! I used nylon material liner inside to help stop any pen leaks etc. :) I'd post a photo I'm so proud of it but am not sure how to do that. Thanks again!

Hi, Your tutorials are the best ever. I just made my very first project, which is this pouch; and it came out perfect for someone who had not touched a sewing machine since childhood like me.
and I like your simple make up. makes your beauty comes out naturally.

The pink fabric with arrows is my favorite. I enjoy watching your tutorials & checking your blog. I am going to make a smaller version of the pencil case for a coin purse. Thanks for your instructions!
