Hi Sewing Friends! I’m Melanie Call from A Bit of Scrap Stuff (Blog) (Instagram) . Today I’m sharing 2 Vinyl Project Bags plus a Zipper Pouch with the fabulous new fabric collection: Stitchy Birds designed by Teresa Kogut. Plus both of these projects are free patterns – yay!

Stitchy Birds is fun folk-art collection featuring stitching motifs plus birds! Teresa is also a fabulous cross stitch pattern designer so I wanted to make Vinyl Zipper Bags plus a coordinating Zipper Pouch to hold my latest cross stitch projects! My FAVORITE print is the Stitchy Birds Midnight Hoops as I love all the sweet stitching thoughts stitched in the hoops!

The Two Vinyl Project Bags measure 14.5″ x 14.5″ so they are the perfect for storing all of your stitching or sewing supplies! Plus the vinyl front makes it easy to know what is stored in your bag. I love a coordinating Zipper Pouch (10.75″ x 7″) to store my smaller notions / floss.
