    Very good pattern and with the help of the useful YouTube tutorial I’ve managed to make several very nice and practical bags even though I’ve never sewed anything like this before. Very pleased.

    Great little pouch. Used cotton canvas with Decovil light stabilizer for exteriors panels. Exterior pocket panel used cotton canvas with SF 101 interfacing and pocket lining I used lightweight cotton canvas and applied SF 101interfacing.
    Interior lining cotton canvas was used and with SF101 interfacing.

    Love the finished results having a firm little pouch that I use in a small crossbody handbag that I made.

    I do like the pattern but do not tell me it’s free when the only way to get it is by donation. Not cricket!
