This week we have a pretty scissor pouch project for you. A pretty gift for your favorite pair of scissors! Give free reign to your imagination with the choice of fabric and embellishment. You can even match the pouch to your sewing room! This pouch will protect the scissors’ tip and will prevent injuries. A simple project to help personalize your little sewing nook!

Time required: About 30 minutes

Material:

• 2 patterned cotton fabrics: 20 cm (8 in)

STEP 1: Cut the scissor pouch pattern in both patterned fabrics and in the cotton wadding.

STEP 2: Right sides together, fold the cotton wadding and one of the two patterned cotton fabrics. Pin and sew them together.
