Winnie utility pouch – testers roundup

Are you planning to make the Winnie utility pouch and looking for some inspiration? You are in the right place! Below, you can see all versions made by my lovely group of pattern testers, and find out what they said after they finished sewing their pouches! Enjoy the show!

“I think the Winnie utility pouch is a great pattern for beginners who are looking to grow and take on some rewarding challenges. I learned quite a few bag-making techniques from making this pouch. What a unique design, with different kinds of pockets and storage compartments! This pouch is highly customizable, so you can make it with as few or as many pockets as you want. I love that this pouch is large enough for my 10-inch iPad but not “baggy” like a backpack; it is the perfect size for a light reading day at a coffee shop or a park. I added D-rings to the tabs and turned this pouch into a crossbody bag!” @Sew Plearn


“Perfect size to store or carry tools to sewing retreats, even my iPad fits inside!” @Peg Coombes


“Absolutely love the pattern.” @Denise Diane Design


“Love this bag! Super roomy with tons of pockets. So many potential uses. Sews up quickly with some unexpected construction methods that were a pleasure.” @ovesonlife


“This pouch along with the accompanying Winnie needle book is a great addition to anyone’s sewing supplies. Large enough to store most needed items for travel to your next retreat.” @bagsandmorebysabrina

“I can see so many uses for this pattern. Not just for craft supplies, also school supplies, personal items when traveling, or what about a small tool kit (using canvas or duck cloth).”


“Easy to follow pattern and the utility pouch is great with it’s many pockets both inside and outside. Great for retreats, trips for sewing supplies, children’s craft items, or toiletries. Really spacious and practical.” @patchandmixcrafts

“I love this pouch! It has lot of pockets, and is big enough to carry all my stuff and fits perfectly to my handbag, so it can even be used as a bag organizer!” @May Dee


“Another fantastic pattern. Unique back pocket installation with photos as a guide to make it super simple. With a few minor changes to pocket options this utility pouch could have a variety of uses.” @daisy_enchanted
