Bunheads Unisex-Adult Ouch Pouch

Product Information

Starting with the end beginning with the zipper pull, trim the ends of the zipper tape so each side extends 1/2″ beyond the metal teeth stops.

NOTE: Before proceeding any further, open the zipper at least half way. If you don’t do this now, you won’t be able to turn your pouch inside out to complete it ;). Step 4: Final Assembly The Ouch Pouches are the brain child of Sammy at Happy Hearts First Aid. She’s a Mummy, Nurse and First Aid trainer on a mission to make first aid cool! Each pouch is handmade with oil cloth and features a fab contrast zip and matching tassel as well as the goodies inside.I have had the crafting bug for the last 25 years, first creating whimsical seasonal pillows for local craft shows (and also selling the patterns) in my spare time, after work. (Shop formerly called PillowSewCute) If you haven't taken a training course with Dark Angel, you should consider it. I took the direct action response training, and it was fantastic. Taught by experienced personal, with real life experience which will hold your attention through out the course! Note: As you can see in the image below, I don’t move my needle closer to the zipper teeth, which is an option. I like to see the accent colour of the zipper tape and find not having to move my needle more helpful when switching between feet. However, all sewing machines differ in the type of zipper foot they have and the finish they provide, so don’t hesitate to experiment with this step to see what works best for you.

In June of '09, the beautiful garden/decor store I worked for closed it's doors... so I knew I had to create something really different and unique that moms needed all year round to help supplement my income. The vision of the Ouch Pouch came to me in a dream, waking me at 3am. I knew I had to get busy. Navy Exterior Fabric – (1) 2″ x 3-1/2″ unit, (1) 5″ x 3-1/2″ unit, (1) 9-1/2″ x 2″ unit, (1) 9-1/2″ x 3″ unit, (1) 9-1/2″ x 7-1/2″ unit.As a quilter, there are endless pieces of scrap fabric on my cutting table at any one time. These little pieces are often perfect for making a pouch or two! Fold the zipper tab in half widthwise with wrong sides together. Press. Unfold and then fold each short end in to the centre crease as shown. Fold in half again. Press. Make 2. Red Fabric – (2) 1-1/2″ squares, (1) 3-1/2″ x 1-1/2″ unit, (2) 2-1/2″ x 1-1/2″ units for zipper tabs. Place exterior pieces and lining pieces right sides together. The zipper tabs are bent towards the lining, and the seam allowance from the zipper tape is directed toward the exterior pieces. We’re big fans here at Have a Mooch, ours comes everywhere with us and gets a regular outing as our youngest tries to keep up with his big brother. They make a great gift for a new mum, or for your friends and family once their little one starts getting mobile.

Alternatively you can stitch the sides starting at the bulky centre around the zipper and only stitch down the side, then flip the piece so you can stitch the second side also starting from the bulky centre. Then stitch along the bottom separately. You would then do the same thing for the lining side. Using a 1/4″ seam allowance, sew together the red and white units to create the red cross. Then sew the side panels, followed by the top and bottom units as shown below. MOM TRENDY ♥ KID FRIENDLY - YOU FILL. OUCH POUCHES - Arrive 'Empty' for you to fill with your own first aid suppliesThanks so much! Thank you for an awesome product for allergies/asthma! You make it easier for kids and parents to carry life saving meds without carrying a obvious medical bag. Using the zipper foot on your sewing machine, topstitch a straight line across the zipper end tab. I will often create two parallel lines approximately 1/8″ apart, or stitch straight over my first line of topstitching for some added strength at this point. Today, I am sharing the instructions for how to make what I am lovingly referring to as an ‘ouch pouch’– but once you understand the basic method, you can easily adapt these instructions to make any size pouch you require.
