@Edel has been taking us to all the Irish places & it has been OMG amazing. We’ve had a few minutes here & there between adventures when she’s most graciously let me play in her fabric stash, & what a stash!
We picked & cut for these pouches. I mean, yes, hello, OK!

Of course you are sewing while visiting! They are all fabulous! I have the Alice rabbit piece on something Edel made for me years ago, so I am glad to see you helping her use the good stuff!
It’s such fun to watch @Magpie work, she’s so productive, and on the crappier machine, as the good one is in the hospital. It’s also great to see your stash through someone else’s eyes and see the combinations they come up with.
Those are beautiful, the spiral paired with the bright fungi is my fave! @Edel where do you get these fabrics? The flamingos remind me of some I almost bought on spoonflower.
The pink and the colourful mushroom fabric in the middle of the purple pouch are both spoonflower.
The Alice fabric, dark mushrooms and extremely loud flamingos are all AliExpress
AliExpress is variable, the Alice print is a nice quality cotton. The mushrooms and flamingos are digital prints onto a poly cotton blend. Just check the specifications on their website carefully and read the reviews. And sizes!! Their FQ are a little smaller than US FQs
The flamingos and mushrooms are from this shop on AliExpress
Bert Fabric Store
We were really just having fun practicing different zipper options, why not use cool fabric to do that with? Edel chose the pairings & those pouches are staying here with her. She’s given me some of the gloomy mushroom fabric to take home, I’ve got to be careful not to go all hoardery with it. Use the good stuff!
