Store and Go Zipper Case

I made these two cute pouches. The pattern is Store and Go Zipper Case by Amy Barickman for Crossroads Patterns. They take less than two fat quarters.  I used my embroidery machine for the designs, but you can also use the circle tool attachment.  The most fun was stitching the zipper.  I used Zippers by the Yard  from byannie.com.  The 4 yards of zipper tape has 16 extra large zipper pulls of multiple colors. The directions tell you to use one side of the zipper for the entire circle.  Then attach the zipper pull.  Very easy! You can make one of the cases in a couple of hours after learning the technique. The pattern is available from Mea Bernina, my local Bernina dealer.
