    I love the boxy pouch. They would make such cute make-up bags (assuming they were properly lined)!

    Thank you for featuring my iphone pouch. If any one is interested in making it, I designed it for the last version of the iphone and I hear that the new ones are a little bit bigger so you may need to adjust the pattern slightly if you have brand new model!

    I made 3 of the Nature Explorer bags- Chez Beeper Bebe's (Holly's) instructions and tutorial are awesome, so easy to follow. My kids LOVE their bags. We used them for the beach- now I'm going to make one for ME!
