I love the pouch and the Batik! (Put me in the Batik fan club. I really want to put batiking back into my craft repertoire!) But is that a golden girls item in there. I love those ladies. They were so savage! Great swap!!!
@Smmarrt explains it here. Basically 2 months of doing daily art on index cards (Index Card A Day) either following their daily or weekly prompts or doing your own thing.
So happy you liked it @SonjaBoo! I saw the pattern I “used” for yours, liked it, then realized the pattern was horrible and cobbled a new pattern together on the fly. You should have heard my sigh when @Bunny1kenobi’s pouches turned up on the thread a few days later!
There are actually two! @SonjaBoo requested anything Golden Girls so I included a tin of mints (supposedly cheesecake shaped, of course!) and then last minute did a doodly ATC of “Picture it, Sicily, 1922…” It’s watercolour but not really showing in this pic.
So many gorgeous pouches! I received from @Magpie two days ago and am FINALLY posting now. I’m up to my neck in final exams and my son’s upcoming graduation.
Magpie and I agreed on extras, including items for our daughters because if you are going to ship internationally you might as well make it worth it!
I asked for a pouch for pads in tampons for my classroom. That way girls can discreetly borrow it. Look at this beauty! Not only did she include a positive affirmation, she also filled it!
She also included this adorable mushroom magnet and this loop of handmade beads. They are amazing!! I love everything about them!! I have been trying to figure out how to make these beads. I can figure it out now that I have my own.
Yay! So much awesomeness for me hearing you and Lucy were happy with things I made for you. Please tell her I included the wooden hoop as it will be easier to work in than that tiny display one that came with the cross stitch kit. Hopefully the aida fits, I visually measured and think it should be ok. @Edel posted a pouch like that one along with the free pattern link. It stands up and the top sort of pulls down exposing the pencils inside for easy access.

Who wouldn’t squee if they got @Magpie 's mushroom cuties!
And, that slide down pouch is very clever! Love that fabrics!
I think the pouch to hold personal products is a great design! Do all schools have such a program of letting young women discreetly get products if they forget or don’t have access?
I got an amazing pouch from @jillybeans and I’m so amazed by the thoughtfulness she put into it. I love it! She read my list and favorites and really put some thought into it. Thank you Jill!
Here’s some photos!
It’s a leather drawstring pouch that opens wide with a grey base. Check out the close up of the fabric. It’s so pretty with the branches and little mushrooms. I LOVE it!
Let’s open it up and see the goodies!
Handmade resin keys that glow in the dark, candies, shells, teeney tiny bottles (some can be pendants) honey sticks (my kid already snagged a couple before I got these photos), a variety of Teas, stickers, lip balm and pieces of chaos like an old spool of red thread, a key, and even a little monster friend!
