There’s never a shortage of birthdays to celebrate around here. I’ve been itching to start sewing through my fun must-make list after spending most of the year on new patterns that are coming up. And if there’s anything I like to sew, it’s small and fun little gifts. These tiny coin pouches ended up being something I had to try! I used Rashida Coleman Hale‘s Snappy Coin Purse tutorial for these two cuties. I think they make such a useful gift!
They’re super quick to make but do require a bit of hand sewing. It’s nothing that should deter you though! They’re just that cute. It’s a very satisfying sew because you can use small scraps of fabric and finish within a short amount of time. I love projects like that, they’re great for in between large projects.
I really enjoyed digging around in my stash for these, making sure to pick something that each birthday girl would enjoy. I think they’ll like them, and now that my daughter spotted them, I suppose I’ll be making at least one more for her. 🙂
Pattern: Snappy Coin Purse Tutorial by Rashida Coleman Hale
Fabrics: Me + You Indah Batik and Umbrella Prints
Snaps: purchased from Gold Star Tool (size 20 used)
(or I also love using SnapSource snaps and Dritz as well, find my tutorial for setting snaps here)
Agh, you’re a genius! I’ve been wanting something little to replace the stupid carrier that my Beats earbuds came with – this will be perfect. ?
oh yay! 🙂
Adorable! A great, little gift.
Oh perfect for storing my knitting markers too! Anna are these the antique brass finish snaps?
for sure! They’d be awesome for that! And yes, antique brass. 🙂
These are lovely! Thanks for a great birthday present idea…
I love the way these little coin purses fold in on the side. Super cute! Could you share what type of fusible interfacing you used? I see Rashida does not specify on her pattern and was curious what you used.
Yeah, they’re so great. I used SF101, I think it worked great with the quilting weight cottons. 🙂
Thank you so much for your reply Anna :o)
Thank you so much!
I had this idea of coin pouch along with small purse and bag for my tablet for my travel in 2 weeks. (All matching of course! 😀 ) Now I found the right way how I want it. thanks for the inspiration.
