Pam Henderson –
Great pattern! Fun to make. These would be a great gift filled with makeup, jewelry, a pretty scarf or treats, depending on the size you make. The was a fun sew and I will definitely be making more. The directions are easy to follow.
Charlene Lee –
This is a very quick pattern to put together and sew up. This will make excellent gifts. This pattern doesn’t take a lot of fabric so you can use leftovers and still make a really nice pouch, that will be useful and in so many sizes too!
Miia Salomäki –
These pouches were fun to make and look adorable. I’m definitely going to sew some more as Christmas gifts.
Fran Bennett –
I made the medium size pouch. It’s a great size (10″ in diameter). I will be making this in other sizes. An easy to understand sew with great instructions for those who are not confident with zips or bias binding.
Kelly Tuttle –
Great little pouch- and a plus that the pattern comes in several sizes. I am planning on making them as teachers gifts for Christmas.
Shelby Chubb –
I’ve never sewn anything like this before so it was more of a challenge than I expected. I’ve been sewing for about 10 years and struggled a bit on this due to the thickness of the pieces the further along you go, and the circular nature of the design. Once I worked through my own anxiety, it came together rather nicely, and the XL is HUGE! Great for all types of storage, and super cute. Overall, I’m very proud of myself for learning new skills and making something I can use for years to come. The instructions were very clear which helped a lot once I dove in!
Rebekah Homer –
I didn’t neeeeeed to make all five sizes, but who can resist! These pictures canes together beautifully. It’s pretty simple to make, but applying the interfacing will take time and sewing circles will require patience and a bit of finagling. The largest and smallest sizes have their own difficulties: either managing a large piece on your sewing machine, or maneuvering a tiny piece. I love the finished result. I do wish I used a heavier interfacing for the larger sizes, just to have a more sturdy pouch, but it still turned out wonderfully.
Samantha Burton –
This is such a fun and fulfilling pattern. I can’t wait to finish making all of the sizes. I love a decent challenge – one that isn’t too hard and this nailed it!
Rebecca Oburotha –
The Nesting Round Zip Pouch is such a beautiful pattern. I loved making it as my extra sew but would have loved to have more time and/or maybe not on the same deadline as my main sew. I worked with the AO/Projector file but it seems the placement of the large and XL lower Zipper fleece was a bit different as it is detached. Maybe right next to it rather than having the optional handle, optional key tab, and round zip bag top & Bottom fleece. The reason I changed my mind to the Medium size is because it was easier/straightforward to cut out. I would have loved to see a video/step by step instructions for using the projector files i.e how to cut out the large and extra large lower zipper fleece out given the detachment. Perhaps placing it vertically (portrait) not horizontally (Landscape) would be better.
Katherine Harris –
I absolutely love how quick these nesting pouches come together – plus you can get creative with piecing the blocks and add fun quilting to really jazz them up. They are so versatile to hold all my sewing notions. I am making tons to store all my pretty fabrics in – the SMALL size is perfect for fat quarter bundles and fits 31 FQ perfectly. The MEDIUM size holds up to 6 jellyrolls and the X-SMALL size is perfect to hold my frequently used notions like my clips.
Irina Akkaya –
Love it! 😀
Jade Burton –
Loved making this nesting zip pouch, I’ll definitely be making more in the future, I opted for size S and it’s perfect for storing things such as makeup, sewing supplies such as threads/tools, it’s a perfect portable size too. Pattern was nice and easy to follow, would highly recommend.
Branka Čelić –
This zip round pouch in size L is perfect for carrying birthday cake in round box. Other than that is perfect for storing sun hat or throw blanket. Such a fun sew!
Tina Marie Baber –
This is a fun and fairly simple pattern to put together. My only issue was sewing the top and bottom onto the pouch being the XS is a little bit tough to get under my sewing foot. I managed to unzip and flip the opposite end of the pouch inside out which allowed it to go und the foot a little easier. This is the perfect size to put into you purse to hold smaller items that may get shifted around and all messed up. I am using the first one I made to keep an emergency sewing kit in my purse. I will be making the additional sizes to give grandkids for back packs and other items. The large holds a throw blanket, small pillow and P.Js for visits to mamaws house. I Really enjoyed making this project!
Angie Pilsworth –
Quick and easy. I made this in 2 evenings done by hand.
Tiina Norrkniivilä –
A fun pattern that comes in many different sizes. Perfect for using up smaller pieces of fabric and to use as storage.

Love this bag! Perfect for storing sewing supplies! Took longer than anticipated but I did a lot of hand basting. Hand basting makes me happy.
