Triangle Coin Pouch

January 11, 2015 By A Spoonful of Sugar - 13 Comments

Make an easy patchwork triangle pouch with our sewing tutorial - A Spoonful of Sugar

Sewing time has been in short supply lately. Life has been keeping me busy and away from the craft room but I managed to sneak a bit of time today to make another Triangle Pouch. (You can find our tutorial here if you would like to make your own Triangle Coin Pouch).  I found another small metal zipper tucked away in my stash. This one was in black which helped decide the colour scheme of this little pouch. The sweet wooden cat button was the prefect addition to a red, white, and black pouch (the cat buttons were purchased from a craft fair and I don’t have the name of the supplier).  I also added a little monogram (alphabet brocaded ribbon from Purl Soho) as a finishing touch. I love combining dots, gingham, text and small prints together.

      Thanks Ruth! I have been waiting for a project that was perfect for the button. I picked it up at a local craft fair – wished I had of bought more of the buttons. They are great to add to projects.

        I just remembered I have some similar ‘buttons’ which are little bunnies made from a thick felt/vinyl material. I also bought them at a craft fair from Studio Mio (pretty sure they are online if any of your readers are interested)

    This is the cutest thing ever–and I love the Japanese-esque cat button. I’ve been trying to figure out triangle pouches for ages, but for some reason, the instructions for them go right over my head.

There’s something so lovely about putting together There’s something so lovely about putting together a bright, happy self‑care gift… especially when it’s handmade.  I stitched a colourful set using Ruby Star Society fabrics - a Relaxation Eye Pillow and a Heavenly Heatpack - and styled them into a complete gift bundle.To make it feel extra special, I lined a small bamboo tray with soft tissue, added the two calming makes, tied them with a pink ribbon, and tucked in a few thoughtful extras: a candle, a box of speciality tea, and a tiny plant. It’s simple, cheerful, and such a beautiful way to show someone you care.Both projects are scrap‑friendly, beginner‑friendly, and quick to sew - perfect for weekend making or last‑minute gifting.If you’d like to sew your own self‑care set, comment SELFCARE and I’ll send you the link to the bundle. You’ll also save 25% on these two gift‑ready patterns when you buy the bundle.#selfcaresewing #beginnersewingproject #scrapfriendysewing #handmadegiftideas #aspoonfulofsugardesigns

Thank you so much for the wonderful reception to t Thank you so much for the wonderful reception to the Quadra Pouch launch last week — I’m thrilled you’re loving this pattern as much as I do.Today I’m sharing a brand new Tilda version, stitched in the large size and made entirely from blenders. I used four Bellflower prints from the Wallflower range for the exterior, and four Stella prints from the Songbird collection for the lining — eight fabrics in total, making it delightfully scrappy.I love how easily Tilda collections mix and match, and how each corner of the pouch showcases a different print. The clever panel construction gives the pouch a neat flat base without boxed corners, and the result is both practical and beautifully structured.If you’d like to sew your own, the Quadra Pouch pattern is available in both my Pattern Store and Etsy Shop.Comment QUADRA and I’ll send the link straight to you.Pattern Details: Quadra Pouch (3 Sizes) - available in our Pattern Store and Etsy ShopFabric: Bellflower blenders and Stella blenders from Tilda, with thanks to @tilda_australia#tildafabrics #quadrapouch #sewingproject #scrapfriendlysewing #pouchpattern
