Little Pouch

[Donna]

Bet you guys didn't know I could actually crochet! I can't remember the last time I posted an FO!

 

Here is a little pouch I made for my Secret Pal, Heather, as part of her reveal package. No pattern, just made a rectangular pouch with black J.P. Coats Crochet Nylon (all sc in the round) to fit the 7-inch all-purpose zipper I bought. Then I sewed in the zipper and a satiny lining (made from some bits of fabric I have around--I don't do much sewing, but I have all the supplies ). It's far from perfect but made with love, so I hope Heather will pretend she doesn't see the minor defects!

I was drooling, I mean looking at that over on the Secret Pal thread earlier.

 

Very very nicely done. It's beautiful!

 

Who know Donna could crochet??? hehe We apreciate the job you do around here even if it keeps you from crocheting alot.

You and the rest of the village council are the best!

Beautiful work!

[Catana]

She crochets! Wadda you know about that? Nice purse. I have some of that nylon, in beige, but haven't tried working with it yet.

[PJ]

Very nice! How is that thread to work with? What size hook did you use?

[faithpa76]

Oh that is nice!

[Donna]

How is that thread to work with? What size hook did you use?

It's kind of slippery, so it took some getting used to. This is the first time I've tried it. The label called for a G hook but I used an H.

It looks very cute. Your secret pal is lucky!

[creativegoodness]

DONNA CROCHETS? Who knew???? Does Julie & Tiffany and all the other moderators crochet also??? BTW, that's a really great zippered pouch!

I think it looks great! You did a wonderful job. Now if I could just learn to sew I might be able to do something like that.

Does Julie & Tiffany and all the other moderators crochet also???

But you see their stuff all the time!

[CraftyChristine]

I think it looks great! I've been sewing for years and I hate doing zippers! The lining is very pretty, I bet she'll adore it!

[Donna]

Now if I could just learn to sew I might be able to do something like that.

My mom taught me to sew both by hand and machine when I was little. I made a lot of wonky hand-sewn doll clothes. I needed to brush up and learn "the facts" about machine sewing so I took a once-a-week evening beginner's sewing class at my local community college last year.

I AM LUCKY - Nah nee nah nee! hahaha just kidding!

 

I LOVE IT TO PEICES!

 

The pictures do not do it justice. It is absolutly stunning and crocheted so well too! She did a terrific job and the liner and zipper are sewn in so nice!

 

Thank you soooo much Donna!

[threeolivemartini]

i love the lining .. great job!

[Tampa Doll]

Beautiful job.

 

I love the lining.

I can sew, (taught by my mom also) but just don't like it.

 

I cringe when ever I have to sew something together.

[123mama]

I really like it. And it looks like you did a great job on the zipper. I hate putting zippers in anything.

[thecrochetdude]

That really is amazing! Great job!

[Kymberlina]

Great bag! Your secret pal is very lucky.

[Terri/LadySorce]

Great job on the inside as well

[sallymander]

[crochetdiva]

I just love it too!!! And from someone who sews too much.....you did a great job!! Very neatly finished, and professional looking.
