for the Love of Pouches...

Love making pouches lately....
These are made from local cotton with accent from Moda Mill House Inn Stripes Bun.
and...these are the latest pouches...
actually it's made from kitchen towel, good thick cotton.
I thought it would be too pretty as a towel, so...I changed it into a pleated zipper pouch :)




and this one is not made from kitchen towel fabric...but Bali batik cotton, a local Indonesian beautiful batik. Shade of blue....
You can see my other pouches at my etsy shop.

I miss it :(


Last month I made a table runner from Bali batik cotton. Bali batik is so hip right now here.
It's more light and soft than Javanese traditional batik eventhough both of them are from cotton.
I quilted it with my favorite organic lines style. There are some major reasons why I love organic lines. First: the gorgeous textures that come out after I quilt my linen or unbleached cotton with those lines.
After that... maybe I love the freedom how I could move the needle, actually I don't like to follow orders!
And the last : my limited skill in quilting ! :)

Finally....I love to see how it turned out!
I put it as a listing on my Etsy shop. Two weeks ago someone bought it.
Today is the first time I missed something I made and not longer with mine. I keep busy telling myself, 'let it go, let it go..' :)
Have you ever felt this way?
