  • Fleece Pouches for Puzzles

    These puzzle blanks were decorated and needed a container of sorts so I went into the studio to brainstorm.

    After awhile I came up with these small fleece pouches sewn from leftover squares.  A coworker made no-sew fleece pillows for friends and gave me the leftover corner squares. I used shoestrings for the ties and it worked out perfectly.

    The way things work out constantly surprises me.  The coworker gave me 16 squares and I needed exactly 8 pouches. Awesome! 

    Using a serger and sewing machine made this project a breeze.  I love it when everything falls into place exactly like a puzzle.
