Placemat Box Zippered Pouch

- čas přidán 7. 09. 2018
- This is a quick and easy project. I used a placemat, a 14" zipper, and 2 pieces of ribbon to make this zippered box pouch.
About a year ago I saw a tutorial by this adorable gal - lifewithmarie
So I just had to try it. Hope you enjoy the video!

What a great idea, a quilted placemat! And already lined. I love this idea. Thanks for the great tutorial.
You are so welcome!
Just made one of these using your directions. Turned out great! Thanks for the instructions!
YAY!!! I am so glaf it turned out great! You are so welcome!
Super Cute!👍🏾
Thanks!
You’re the first person that I’ve seen demonstrating corners that does it the way I do. I learned the square technique almost 20 years ago and love using it! Thanks for the quick and easy video!
Thanks, Carole!!! So fun using "old school" techniques!!!
Love this!!
Thank you!
Really pretty and nice size
Thanks for watching and commenting!
Super idea!!
Thank you!
I get together with 3 high school friends every year and make little gifts for each. This year I’ll make these little bags and fill them with a few other little things. Love this project.
Oh Michael, that sounds like fun. So glad you shared that with me!!!
Looks easy. I will try this.
Have fun!
I loved it and already made one! Great instructions! Thank you!
Ohhh! How cool!!!
Pretty stinking cute, indeed. Very good tutorial and a great idea for using placemats.
Molly, thank you! 😊
Great idea. I love the fabric on outside.
Thanks!!! I love it too. Sure wish I could find it again!!!
What an absolutely beautiful fabric.💗💗💗
I know. I love that fabric!!!
Never thought of trying a placemat like that, I like that a lot. I made gauge blocks a couple years ago for making bags like this, cut the squares out from ice cream bucket lids, I made some .75" all the way to 3.5" for fast work with some tailor's chalk for marking these squares quickly and accurately to cut back from the seam allowance lines.
WoW. Thats a great suggestion.
I’ve made several of these, but followed Lorrie Nunmaker’s tutorial. Love them.
Her tutorials are great
Love the print. Beautiful bag.
Oh, I do, too. Sure wish I could find more of her placemats.
This is wonderf!!! U did such a great job!!
Thanks. I am glad you enjoyed the video!
Thank You! I know this tutorial is older, but I made one last night following another ladies tutorial and because I am HUGE beginner to anything sewing, when she failed to mention (or i didnt hear) that I needed to open the zipper before stitching the sides, Imagine my surprise when I sewed the bag clean shut. Haha! I had to rip the seams to open the zipper to turn. My zipper is really wonky too, she didnt pin her zipper but I should have!! I appreciate those details you added to your video. I’m off to try, try again!
I try not to leave out important details because of my "beginner" subscribers. I am so glad you found it to be helpful. Thank you so much for taking the time to comment!!!
watched your video and now I can't wait to make some bags. Thanks
Have fun!!! They are so easy!!!
I love this! I have several pouches to make for Christmas presents.
Oh yeah!!! Great Christmas gifts!!!
How creative.
Adorable little usable bag.

This looks great and super simple. I’m going to try one tmrw.
Awesome!!! I am excited that you are inspired to make one.
And this one is so easy since it's already quilted and lined!!! Sure wish I could find more of those black placemats.
Nice
Please tell me where you purchased the Vera Bradley placemats. Thanks. Love the lesson.
@@kathyshipley9007 I got them at an antique shop. They are a discontinued item
great video, really enjoyed it
I am so glad you liked it.
those pouches are very nice
Thank you!!! Fun to make!
Thank you so much those bags are really really stunning and gorgeous and how lucky to find those wonderful placemats.
Thanks for watching and leaving your sweet comment.
Dude there are all kinds of ceaxy beautiful pllacemats out there.
@@FatNebraskaMom yes there are and I am always on the look out!!!
@@mywithallmyart dude we have a woeld market here in Omaha. Im beside myself now. Cant wait to go lol.
I've been doing this for several years! I started with placemats but it's a little difficult to find the double sided ones that are more heavy duty than single sided ones! I also find that purchasing a yard and a half of double sided quilted fabric you can get 4 place mats for less than 4 place mats! I also like to make my bags a little larger at times so I sometimes can only get 3 bags out of a yard and a half! These are so fun to make! I have made them for all if my friends & they love them! They work vest if double sided! I also measure my bags from the fabric & add 2 to 4 inches wider for some of my friends that wanted larger bags. I measure & then cut them in half! It makes it so much easier to put in the zipper & with a overlooking machine they come out very nice & neatly made! Plus it makes the zipper installation look very professional! I even put pockets on the inside of some of the bags I make & it's easier to do when cut in half then stitched on the overlocking machine gives it a nice finish! I always like to add things to my projects like inside & out side pockets & inside dividers! They sell well when there is a variety!
Thanks for sharing this info. What great ideas!!! Thanks for being so generous
Cats&Company at Walmart, there are some Pioneer Woman quilted squares pattern .... there is also a blouse and white.... I think the placemats art $3.00
Cats&Company also, you can find some on,eBay....... Lori Nunemaker has about 8 You Tube videos on how to make pouches........ from placemats....
I love this idea!!! Thanks.
Thanks!
Saw this video earlier in the week. Went to Home Goods and found a 4pk of Martha Stewart placements on sale for $10, found a couple zippers in my stash… and made this bag. Too cute and super easy. Your instructions were very good. I like cutting out the corners …. Much easier to manuever and sew! I may be making these to sell. Wow. Thanks again.
Kimberly, that is awesome!!! I am so glad you found some cute placemats to work with!!! Thanks for taking the time to comment!

Gorgeous placemats! (Not antique since Vera Bradley Co. was created in 1982) I'd love to find fabric like those :D
I love these placemats. Yes! I knew they were not antique but oh so cute!!! Not antiques just purchased at an antique shop.
@@mywithallmyart Man, you made such a great find! :D You've inspired me not only to make the zippered pouch, but a matching vest, too. I've found some very similar fabrics of hers, I really love that black background; I never knew she did one with black background. Whoohoo! Thanks so much for your videos!
I found some material similar to that at savers, people are always donating pillow cases with a kind of tapestry material.
@@lornanorris1363 Wheeee! I like places like Goodwill, sometimes a yard sale etc. and find things like designer sheets, bedspreads, curtains, etc. to cut up. :D I once found some 80s Laura Ashley drapes to cut up, sew ew things and resell, lol :)
@@lornanorris1363 sounds like a cool find. We don't have a savers in our area. But I am always on the look out!!!
WOW! So cute is right, quick and easy 😊enjoy your video! Thank you for Sharing!!! Submit to your channel! Liz...
Awww!!! Thanks Elizabeth!!!
mywithallmyart you are very welcome!
Very nice
Thanks for commenting!
Great 👍
Thank you
The square corners guarantee they will all be perfect. Thanks so much. I have never subscribed so don’t know how I end up receiving the free patterns. I am Judith Kurtovich
Judith, I have looked at my email subscriber list using just your name and I don't see you. I don't know how you are getting patterns either. If it comes in an email just unsubscribe. Thanks for watching!!! :)
Totally making a crapload of these.
They are so easy and fun to make!!!
Simple!
So easy!
This just popped up on my youtube recommended page today. So happy to see you made the placemat bag :)
I loved your video and I think I tagged you in it!!! You are adorable!!!
I love this where did you get the placemats ?
Gladys, I got the placements at an antique store. They are not antique, though. The vendor had 2 sets of 4 and I only bought 1 set. Sad face! I went back recently and of course the other set was gone! They are Vera Wang - retired! So glad you liked the project!
Just watched your bag video and love this bag! I’ve watched a couple dozen of similar bags & this is my favorite. Love this material colors & pattern is beautiful. Thanks so much! 😃
I am so glad you enjoyed my video!!! I love that fabric, too
Hi,like your voice and your video presentation. Ce instructions. Videos.
Thanks, Karen! Texas accent!
I needed 6, and made 4 before I ran out of time @ Christmas, I put my daughters and granddaughters gifts inside as gift wrap, they loved them, I am back at it now to make the 2 I still “owe” the others. Since I don’t know anything about sewing and simply follow along, is there any trick to lining up the 2 sides of the zippers to the placemat edge evenly? I line it all up, pin and then SLOWLY sew. They are always wonky!. I have picked them apart so many times I am ruining the placemats. I end up sewing further in on the sides to try to hide the screwups…. I had better luck making pouches the the “regular” way, but these placemat ones are soooo cute! I know it can be done, you do it so well!~. Thanks again
To line up the zipper: close the zipper at least a little bit. Then, position the placemat and pin in place. Reopen the zipper to make it easier to stitch. I hope this helps.
I am excited that you made some of these as gifts!!! Keep stitching!!! (and ripping) LOL!
Thanks you it's beautiful. What size needle did you use for the quilted pouch?
It was a medium universal. Size 14.
Plus, it's a Vera Bradley bag... :D
Absolutely!!!
On the corners, when you see the straight Stich, simply turn it around and zig zag while you are already there.
Good idea
Thank you l thought maybe you got others in a store thank for getting back to be.

Hi,Maria from UK,what was the actual size of the placemat both ways ? In inches
12"X18"
👍👍👍😳😳😳👏👏👏😘😘😘😊😊😊
Thanks
😭 Where can I find similar placemats!!? 😭
I wish I knew. I think they are discontinued. I found them at an antique mall.
You can find quilted placemats at any home store. I've been making these and using the pioneer woman brand from WalMart. They are $3.47 each and make adorable bags.
Where can i find the placemats?
These exact placemats are not available. I just happened onto them at an antique mall. I keep an eye out for placemats at Goodwill or Ross. I sure wish I could find more like these.
I found some Vera Bradley on eBay....
Purchased 2
I am so glad you found some. That's awesome!!!
mywithallmyart there are also 4 like yours....I think she is asking $40
Thanks I will check it out
Black is so difficult to see
Sorry that you had a hard time seeing!
Pls share the measurement of mat
12 inches x 18 inches!
No,
Hmmm
All the masks where free !!
That is so generous!!! What a blessing you are!
