Skill Level: Advanced Beginner to Intermediate

Come stitch up a sweet, zippered pouch! In this class, we'll be making the Large Size of the 'Hello Pouches' by Knot + Thread.

The Hello Pouch features a quilted base for stability and a vinyl top - choose clear vinyl so you can see all the contents, or use one of our new colorful jelly vinyl material! Once you learn how to make one it'll be a breeze to make the other sizes to gift to your family and friends.

During this 2-week class, students will practice their quilting and binding skills, learn how to make a boxed bottom bag, insert a zipper, and learn how to work with vinyl material.  This class is suitable students who have prior bag making + sewing with zippers experience. Quilting experience is helpful but not required for this project.
