A couple of days after FNwF and I am getting around to posting what I got up to. During the day I made a project pouch but I haven't taken a picture of it. Maybe next time.

In the evening I got started on a lace zipper pouch that I have been wanting to make for a while. I am not the biggest English paper piecing fan. I like the end result but I struggle with the actual stitching because my glasses need updating. I also struggle with deciding on fabrics. This time I opted for some vintage doilies that were a bit tatty for use as doilies.

I'm happy with the result and it once the hexie flower is made, the actual pouch takes only minutes to make. The hexie flower took me and my dodgy eyes more than minutes that's for sure.
Thank you Cheryll for hosting.
Bye for now,
Tracy

Love the bag & the hexies are gorgeous.
It looks lovely, I'm not good at putting zippers in things. If I was, several of my fleece jumpers would have new zippers by now.
Pretty and practical.
