Reverse Appliqué Zip Pouch with Liz Smith

Learn how to stitch reverse appliqué shapes & handstitch a useful zippered pouch for keeping your sewing or knitting notions safe. There’s something charming about a handstitched pouch & zip & the only limit is your imagination for stitching stripes, circles, hearts, creatures into fabric once you know how it’s done.

All materials & equipment are provided for this workshop. We advocate for using up scraps & upcycling materials into new things & there will be lots of scrap to choose from, but feel free to bring your own too.

No experience of hand stitching is required, the techniques are quick to pick up. Once you have the principles, you might want to make these over & over again.
