The whole stable of pencil pouches

Hello, everyone. As the title says, I have finished the lot of the pencil pouches. Some are gifts for family and some are gifts for others.
As y'all can see, there is a variety of colors. After the first one, I switched to using zippers-by-the-yard that were purchased at the Houston Quilt Festival a couple of years ago. 

The black elastic on the back of pouches with black zippers was purchased for this and there is a lot still left. The white zippers are paired with white elastic which was in stash.

All of the face fabrics and linings and batting are from stash. Quilting cotton inventory for the win! 

This pouch is from the blog at Sulky.com,  where they forgot to include the lining attachment in the instructions--it isn't difficult to figure out, and using the zippers-by-the-yard makes it easy, too. The only change i made was to quilt the face fabric to the batting instead of using spray glue. It was fun deciding on the quilting pattern for each fabric.

The little puppy peeking out of the striped pouch was made a few years ago for use as a tuck-in in a future pouch and it has found its new home. There are more available tuck-in stuffies so the other pouches will probably get them too. 😀
