I had these canvas pouches in my stash for a while and finally decided to put one to good use. Inspired by the Craft Stars Garage Sale, I embellished one of the pouches with a bunch of my hand-dyed fabric scraps. Then I just stitched all over them.
The macrame zip pull was one of those things that, once it came to me, I had to do it right away. I think I added it at like 11:00 at night after putting my kids to sleep. The wooden bead I had burned previously and was also in my stash.
I thought I was going to do traditional shashiko stitching at first, but I quickly realized I’m not an even enough stitcher for it to look like it’s supposed to. So I borrowed some techniques from TM patches.

I’d never think to make a project like this, and that is what this community so great! Well done. So many eye catching things to see. And, when inspiration hits, it hits–even at 11pm.
I was so sad i missed this, but thrilled for where it went! Again, with the detailing - that’s where the money is! I just love scrappy stuffs! And your colors are supreme!
