Free PDF Printable Template - My Polka-Dot Zipper Pouch

Today, I'm giving you my best free PDF pattern for a cute polka-dot zipper pouch. This zippered pouch pattern will make a wonderful beginner sewing project, even if you are new to sewing zippers. It's an easy and quick sew, a bit smaller than my other tutorial, this makeup case tutorial. Just to remind you, this zipper pouch is lined. It's colorful - as much as you choose it to be. And it's easy to make. A great beginner sewing combination!

People really love sewing sweet little things like this pouch. It's amazing, how quickly this new pattern took off! Here are two reasons why you'll love it too:

1) The most versatile size of all I've tried. (And my favorite!)

It's a great, universal size for storing anything, from crafting bits and pieces to keys and documents. A perfectly sized pencil pouch, just right for all those colored pencils that are lying around the house. (Kids!) Or, you can easily turn it into a cosmetic bag to hold makeup (just the right size for your on-the-go mascara!).

You can even store sewing accessories in them. Buttons! Ribbons! Makes a great emergency set of sewing supplies for when you travel somewhere.

2) Makes a perfect holiday gift.

There's nothing better than a gift that looks totally stylish but it's so easy to make! And this zipper case is just that.

And guess what, now's the perfect time to make a few early Christmas presents for your loved ones! Use the free PDF pattern as many times you wish, sew one for you and one for each of your friends and family members. Trust me, it feels soooo good when you know you've got all your homemade gifts ready - before December even starts!

And on a side note, see the cute sleep mask in the photo above? Here's a pattern for that one too, as well as the tutorial. Sign up for my free newsletter and get access to even more free patterns, here.
