This week I decided to make a new pouch for my business cards. The one I am using now is getting a little ratty looking from being in my purse for several years.
I didn’t take any in progress photos. I wasn’t really thinking about it, just enjoying the process of making something.
This is the first one, front and back and closed. It turned out well but I tiny bit smaller than I wanted. Not bad considering I didn’t do any measuring I just cut out a resist and started.
Here it is on the resist so you can see the shrinkage
And a pictures of the nuno felt designs.
I made the second pouch bigger. I wanted some ruffles along the sides so added extra fiber there sticking out from the side. I didn’t make the extra wide enough and it almost disappeared. It is a tiny bit ruffled but not great.
and on the resist.
And a close up of the silk roses, I think I will shave them, they are a bit fuzzy.
Finally both of them with a ruler to give you an idea of size. one is about 6 and the other about 8 inches
I have a thought of making them to sell. I thought maybe I would put a grommet in the back with a carabineer clip in it. I am just not sure they will sell at a decent price. Do you like the idea? What do you think people would pay for them?
