Where does the time go? March is always a crazy month for our family with spring break, birthdays and ski season. Here it's come and gone and I haven't even had a chance to tell you about the latest SWAPeroos I'm sewing for.
First up is the Pretty {little} Pouch swap (P{l}PS)which I have joined before. My pouches are all done and off in the mail to my partner. Hopefully they will arrive soon. Since my partner likes scrappy designs and pastel-ish colors I decided on this pink-inspired color palette. I just love this Domestic Bliss line from Liz Scott which is saying something because sewing is about as close to Domestic Bliss as i'll ever get. Other aspects of domesticity not withstanding.
Well, hmmm, it seems to be missing something. Somehow that didn’t really seem like enough, so I added a little cell phone pouch to coordinate. I must confess I needed to make a cell phone pouch as a gift for a friend, so I used my P{l}PS partner’s extra as a prototype.
Needs some tweeking to get it just right for my friend, but it turned out pretty well for a first pass. The patterns are self-drafted and I do plan to make them available soon so stay tuned. I know I always say that and don't always deliver, so keep me honest peeps! Swap project A completed. Now onto the next one…
Happy Sewing!

ReplyDeleteSend me your name and email address to cascadeskids at gmail dot com and I will send you a new copy. Your old download link is likely expired by now.
I SOOOOO want to get my hands on the cell phone pouch from back in April of 2012. Where/how can I buy it. I have searched the internet over for something like this. Please let me know.
ReplyDelete@ Sewcool I'm selling the pattern on at the top righthand side if you'ld like to make your own. Also avail at Craftsy or on Etsy. Otherwise, i'm afraid you will have to keep searching.
