How to sew a zipped pencil case/box pouch. Back to school DIY
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 сер 2019
- This week I am sharing how to sew a zipped pencil case and a box pouch. If you are heading back to school this Autumn then this is the DIY for you. In this video I am sharing how to make two options. An easy sew simple pouch and a slightly harder zipper pouch.
I hope you find this video easy to follow.
Here are the measurements of the pouches.
The 1st pouch measures - 13 inches wide and 9 inches in length, when boxing the corners I measure 1 inch from the point. I used a 14 inch zip and trimmed to size.
The 2nd pouch measures - 10 inches in width and 5 inches in length and I used a 10 inch zipper.
The larger box pouch in the clips measures - 13 inches in width and 18 inches in length. When boxing the corners I measure 2 inches from the point. I used a 14 inch zipper and trimmed to size.

This is a perfect project to do with my granddaughters. They can pick out their own fabric, and will love the fact they made it themselves!
Have fun making these Mary ❤️❤️
Thats so sweet and such a great idea!
Your such a good grandma
Adorable! Zippers are so difficult and you make it look so easy. Thank you💕
They all turned out so pretty! I love anything floral, so these really put a smile on my face! Anything you want to post, is good by us! Love all your videos!
I was feeling low today so I wanted to do something creative to cheer myself up. Been meaning to use up some scrap fabric I've had knocking about for ages now and I needed a pencil case, so I'm so glad I found this video. I thought it would be tricky but you made it so easy. Clear simple instructions. I love my new pencil case and have decided to make more for Christmas presents for my friends and family. Thank you so much!
This gives me joy to hear, happy you feel better x
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I make pouches for my daughters boutique but now I will be trying those box ones as well, nice change!
This is a great video. Very clear instructions and I love the motivation from you to just give it a go. Thank you x
Hello from Florida! This tutorial was spot on and super easy to follow. Thank you so much for putting the time and energy into creating it. 🥰
Beautiful pouches! They can come in so handy for many things! Thanks for sharing Catherine and have a lovely week-end!
A lovely neat job! Very pretty fabrics, too!
Catherine, the material is so pretty. The fact you always explain what your doing so clearly is a great help. Thank you 🌹🌹
Thank you so much Polly! So glad you found dit easy to follow, Thanks for watching x
This was so easy to follow and turned out beautiful! Great video!
Anyone who is wanting to learn to sew would do well to watch your videos in order !! I’m not a beginner, but I watch your videos and nod approvingly- you are a great teacher !❤️
Thanks Nanci, Appreciate the support x
You made it look so easy! I’ve seen others and they take so many unnecessary steps. It’s so hard for a beginner. Yours is the best version. Thanks for sharing!
Glad it was helpful!
Not only did you do a stunning job but you also pick a beautiful material for the pouches🥰.
Thank you so much 😊
Yay! We have tons of cute shabby chic fabric that we want to make these pouches with! Great idea for gifts for Christmas! Thank you, Catherine!
Have fun making these, great idea for Christmas, you could pop in beauty mini's into the pouches x
I love the way you are very true to your own style. Very beautiful work.
Very beautiful! Blondie was so good today! She just sat and watched instead of trying to show you how to do it.
Yes, Blondie actually let me sew today, no sleeping on the fabric this week lol x
😆😆
I love it! You always have the cutest material too! Thank you for sharing! 💜
Yes, I’d definitely like to see a haul video!
Wonderful idea...and so pretty, what a great way to create and use material for something practical..
Love this DIY 🦋🌻🌹
They are so pretty . Perfect for scrap busting too
Thanks Louise! Thanks for watching ❤️❤️
They look very professional love the fabric so beautiful thank you x
Thank you so much Mandy! x
All three of them are lovely. You did a fantastic job. Thank you for sharing. Love them all.
Yay! Thank you!
you are really rocking these zippers! Congratulations on conquering them. These are adorable
Thank you sew sew much!! :D As a sewing beginner this was my first time trying anything with a zip and my first time trying to sew anything with lining. My head would have been melted trying to figure out which way to face and align the zip, lining and outer material without your wonderful tutorial, without which I have no doubt I would have had the zip upside down and the lining facing the wrong way!!!
Aw Welldone for doing your first zip!!!
Love the fabric pattern . Instead of the interfacing .I'm going to use vinyl iron on which at Jo-Ann's it's with the interfacing . Thank you so much .
These are so darn cute💖 All of the pouches you have demoed in other videos as well are adorable!
Aw thanks Vicki, Thanks for watching!
Thank you for such a lovely tutorial! I just made my first boxed pencil case and I'm very proud of it! I can't wait to make more!
Glad it was helpful! x
So very pretty Catherine, with endless possibilities. I love all of them 👍🏻♥️🥰. Enjoy the evening!
Beginner sewer but after some mistakes I was able to make some cute pouches ❤ Not perfect but I’m learning a lot from you! And I adore the fabric 💕
I'm so glad you kept with it, mistakes are out best teachers x
Love them. Love the pattern of the material.
Thank you xx
It wasn't that long ago you were worried about tackling zips. You've certainly got over that hurdle! You make it look so easy. Be great to use fabrics from dresses, as you've done before, that I don't want to throw but love the fabric. Hmm I think I might have to try this too! Thank you for sharing and have a great weekend x
You are a neat sewer. Looks beautiful
Great job, Catherine!! 🙂📍✂️
You are doing so great with the zippers. I'm so happy you got over your fear. You are really becoming a beautiful seamstress. The pouches are really sweet. Love them. Hugs!!!
You are so clever, you can turn your hand to anything💗💗
Made my daughter a pencil case using the first one. Worked a treat, thank you!
Yay, so happy to hear that x
Thankyou for showing us how easy it’s to sew a zipper into these pouches.
Thanks Steph ❤️❤️❤️
Great ideas. I think they would be great for traveling bags. Make up, brushes. creams etc. Thank you for sharing,
Thanks Barbara, Thanks for watching x
Absolutely love it 😍 especially your fabric
Aw thank you xxx
I love all your vittorio's you make the most wonderful things thank you for making these
Thank you Gloria, Thanks for watching x
You continue to inspire and grow, you’re a delight to watch Dainty . All the best for the awards, you’ve got my vote 😀👍🏻💕
That means so much Judy! Thank you sweetheart x
Thank you! This was great for a beginner!
I love your videos! I am watching them 1 by 1. You are so lovely, and I could listen to your voice every minute of the day! When I was little, an Irish family moved to Queens, New York ( which I enjoyed seeing in your New York travel videos when you attended the Create... Conference.), and I met my best friend Maureen at PS229. Sadly, her family moved away soon after, but I still miss her to this day!
I am having so much fun watching your videos, and then going and reading your accompanying blog. I love watching your how to videos with your delightful intros and stories! You really do it all beautifully. I share your love of cottage shabby chic and roses and pretty towns and, well all of what you share! You’re photography and video editing are wonderful, and to think you do it all while working a retail job. You’re amazing, but I knew that right away from the first video I saw of you when you explained how you saved for your house and made it gorgeous with virtually no money! 🌺🍭🍬❤️🌈 Please keep your wonderful videos coming. I think you said you can only do 1 a week on your day off, but I want more! Keep up the great work, lovely, happy girl. Glad beautiful Blondie let you sew! I want to be brave like you and learn to use my sewing machine that just sits, and I’ve never tried it! ✂️Cheers, LKH🖼
Love them!!! Hope I can find some fabric like that here in Argentina. Great job!!
I have been watching many videos like this one, but your first pencil case is the BEST version I have seen. My grandsons start school in a few weeks, so I will be making them these!! Thank you for such all the information you provide!😊💕💐❤💖 I have also seen the larger zipper pouch made out of quilted placemats... then you don't have to line them!
Thanks Patti! Thanks for watching x ❤️
Just tested this and it's brilliant! I'm going to make pencil cases for my son's teachers for the end of the year, in school subject-themed fabric!! Many thanks for taking the time to post your videos!
Aw what a nice present to make x happy new year 🥳
I'm loving these, especially the larger one which would easily hold my knitted sock projects.
Thanks Annie, thanks for watching, hope you have a lovely evening x
Fabulous tutorial Catherine. You made it look so easy and your tutorial was easy to follow
Thanks Lisa, so glad you found it easy to follow ❤️❤️❤️
I just made this as a birthday present for my friend and it turned out super cute! Thanks for sharing it with us :)
*One thing I will note is, make sure you use stiff interfacing for your fabric, as I used some that is not as stiff and the bag was not as sturdy as hers. However, the two fabrics I used were both super thin, so it might just be my own fault. Thanks again, Catherine!
I am so happy to hear you had a go at making this, Yes, a stiff interfacing holds the shape better x Thanks for watching x
Love ❤️ those bags
thanks so much for this! it was so quick and easy to follow and i'm so stoked with how mine turned out
Aw yay, so happy to hear that x
Beautiful! I have some leftover fabric and I think I know what to do with it now lol
My 13 year old is making her own pencil case this year. We brought the zip today so I’ve sent her your video. X
Aw love this Christine! Good luck with the sewing x
Hi Catherine those are really cute they turned out great thanks for sharing

Good job darling. Beautiful work!
Awesome. You are a professional. Thanks for all the tips and tricks. So much to learn. Very neat. I shall try making them.
Happy sewing ❤️❤️ thanks for watching
Hi love you penciled case. Just a idea I use friction pens when sewing and it just irons away. 😄
Aye, do a stationery haul, that would be class👍
These pouches are a great idea to use up my scraps and give as gifts for Christmas. Thanks!
Have fun making these Melanie, Thanks for watching , have fun making some!
So lovely. I love your videos.
Thank you, Thanks so much for watching! x
Love the box case I Can never seem to find the right pencil case for me but this was the perfect one
Ohh I was here yesterday en I learnt ,I actually made six of them 🤗I was extremely happy and grateful that I watched this vlog .thank yo so much
I am so happy to hear that!
Exactly what I was looking for. I just splurged, well, its a splurge for me as I don't find it easy to buy for myself, but I decided in my 40's to teach myself to draw and paint and as I've gotten a bit better I was ready to buy some nicer, real artist pencils...not the crazy expensive ones I've not totally gone over the deep end, not for spending anyway ;) but I was looking at cute pencil cases to use just when I want to bring just a few things with me to always have and don't need the while tin, but they're pretty expensive if they're cute at all and mostly too big. Oh and plus, after I've not been sewing a while I get super nervous of that darn machine and I've never gotten good at it....but I'm bound and determined to get past that hurdle as well, so, thought a simple bag or pencil case might be fun to try and feel proud of....hopefully 😳😊
So thank you for this and you have many other's i can't wait to look at as well! Beautiful channel :) thanks again!!!
Aw thank you! Have fun making yours and what a nice hobby to have ❤️
Super job, you made it look like I could tackle this one Lol. Take care from Va USA

Your tutorial is so easy to follow thank you. So all I need to buy is a zipper and facing I already have the fabric to make the bigger pouch. These are so cute and dainty. Please make a video of your favorite stationary and other essentials. I remember how excited it was to have new crayons, pencils, paper, back pack and even a cute lunch kit the first day of school 🚌 Oh and new dresses 👗 and shoes. Loved your video😘
AW thank you, Thanks for the feedback, thanks for watching! x
I do love the sewing ones as said ma was a seamstress and I couldn’t figure it out but you explain and make it seem so easy. I appreciate it. I love to see all you do🤩
