A Granddaughter Pouch

My younger DGD said to her mom the other day that she needed another “JanBag.” So I decided this ByAnnie Clam Up zippered pouch I made before heading out on vacation on January 1st will become a new JanBag for her.

I love this bag pattern. The pattern gives five sizes and I made the size Large. The fabric I used was from Tula Pink’s “Evergreen” collection. Again, I used the “Good Hair Day” print, only this time in the color Karma. For the lining, I used the same Neon Tent Stripe in Spirit that I used on Harper’s Packing Cube in the previous post. I quilted the exterior and lining together, making a sandwich with ByAnnie’s Soft & Stable foam stabilizer, and using the stripes to guide my quilting. Love!

Note: My phone colors are not coming out the same as the actual colors of the fabrics. I know Harper’s bag (previous post) was a much lighter turquoise/teal than it showed in the photos. Sorry about that.

As my workload is lighter this semester than last, I’m thinking I’ll do some stashbusting and make a whole set of these Clam Shells. I love how the empty pouches nest inside each other, and I love how handy these little pouches are. I hope you think so, too.
