Ghost Stories: The Hemingway Pouch by Center Street Quilts - Bag Making Kit

Some stories are best kept in a pouch.

This kit has all the supplies you need to make the Large Size, Hemingway Pouch by Center Street Quilts. It looks like something you'd pay too much for at a boutique and then lie about where you got it. Except you made it. In an afternoon. In a print called Ghost Stories.

It's perfect for your Kindle, a small notebook and the good pens you don't want anyone else touching. Everything coordinates beautifully so you can jump straight into sewing.

✨ What's Inside

• Dayflex (our bonded poly-nylon fabric) for exterior
• Water-resistant canvas for lining 
• Matching zipper and zipper pull
  
• Sew-In fleece
• Fold over elastic

Why Makers Love This Project

• The diagonal zipper is the entire personality. It looks hard. It is not hard. You will absolutely let people believe it was hard.
• The size that goes everywhere: Finished at 7" x 8 1/2". Big enough for an e-reader or a paper notebook, small enough to disappear into your tote without taking over.
• Confident Beginner friendly: no printed templates to tape together, no pattern pieces to trace. You cut everything with a ruler in inches, following full colour step by step graphics.
• Quilted, so your stuff is padded and protected in your bag like a very safe little burrito.
• Coordinated so you don't have to be: every fabric and hardware piece was curated to look like you planned it for months.
