Two Little Pouches

My new stash management plan involves taking the leftovers from the latest project and immediately making them into something, rather than just tossing all that fabric on the pile. It's a fun way of challenging myself. Here's a small amount of coordinating fabric: make it into something fabulous!

These cosmetic pouches were made from the scraps leftover from My Zig Zag Quilt. I had eight flying geese leftover and a few strips of fabric. The pouches just kind of came into being from that. My original plan was to make two small purses, but I like these better. They're nice and sturdy and very functional. Too bad I almost never wear make-up or I might steal one of these for myself. Seriously, my blush is over five years old and looks like it's never been used.
