i had just the tiniest bit of eggplant velvet left, enough to make em a velvet pouch. perfect for her, as she loves purple more than anyone else i know. the pouch was SO easy to make. 2 hrs? (this is amazingly fast for me... i usually spend a weekend making a simple skirt. sorry, but my ocd pays off in good sewing!)
i stitched little beaded tassles at the bottom to help anchor the pouch lining. the black beads are from a hawaiian anklet that broke (em used to live in hawaii!!!) and i ended the tassle with a blue bead to match the randomly blue zipper.
the zipper is from a conference tote bag (i hate those free tote bags... however, their zippers are sooo useful!) the lining is a scrap from madeleine's baby's bloomers, a baby shower gift i made 2 years ago! the pouch is big enough to fit em's wallet, keys, and phone. (it's not actually THAT small.)
