A Reminder

I love getting mail!   Today was no exception.   I got my zippers from Jennifer at Zipit on etsy, and my zipper pulls.   Look at these fun ones she sent!


Now if you order soon, Jennifer is giving a 15% discount on her etsy store to all my fab followers.  See this post  for the coupon.  And I am going to be a tutorial for the design team on my zippered pouches, which will require a 8.5" zipper or 10" total length.   
 I am also going to be showcasing some very funky zippered flowers as soon as I get playing with my zippers.  

One last thing, please go and vote again, see my bar to the right, where it says 'vote', hit the flower and give me a vote.   You can do it every day right up till May 24th, and I would soo appreciate it1

Thanks super fabulous followers=)

Giveaway Winner and My New Pouches

I still can hardly believe that in early March when I decided to celebrate my one year of blogging with a challenge of 150 followers, that I actually achieved it.  Thank YOU!  For deciding to follow and for all your lovely comments.  I read each one and as long as there is an email address attached, I try and respond back.  

Without further ado,
The winner for the 5 fat quarters is
'Sallie'
Congratulations!


Now here are my cute little zippered pouches.   I have 9 of these little guys ready to go.   I used to always stay away from zippers, too hard, too time consuming.  Now I am on etsy ordering more zippers, can't use them enough! 

They just make the bag or pouch that much more versatile, useful and practical.  And honestly, zippers are easy.  





These pouches have the PUL lining, (other than the one shown here). 

PUL is a waterproof material that you find on cloth diapers.   But now that people are finding the different uses of this fabric, it is on so much more.   When I make my reusable snack/lunch bags, it is lined with PUL. 

I have made 8 of these zippered pouches with the PUL lining and am going to make some without.   If you were purchasing one, and the price was the same, would you want one with the PUL lining or some cute fabric lining and why?
