Before I pack up and leave for my 3 week vacation in Europe (that’s right, I said it…where? Oh let me tell you…Amsterdam, Paris, Berlin, Dresden, Budapest and Prague…I know!) I thought I’d share two zippered pouches I made with the Atkinson Design Zippy Strippy Pattern.

This one I am going to send off to my aunt. It’s Laurel Burch cat fabric and it just has my aunt written all over it. I even made my own piping. You know, that is so easy I will never buy premade piping again.

Then there is this one that I made for my mom. Guess who is coming with me to Europe?

I’ll be taking my English Paper Piecing table runner with me for all the planes and trains. It has gotten wider in order to fit my dining room table, so there is a lot more work to be done there.

Maybe I’ll be able to post progress pics from the road…maybe I show off my progress in three weeks. We’ll see 🙂
