Check out this sweet vintage floral canvas available at The Tin Thimble. If this fabric were mine, I think I'd use it to make a large Pleated Wristlet.
Last week I had coffee with a friend and she showed me a medium Pleated Wristlet she'd made with a canvas print, so of course I wanted to make one too. Maybe I'll get to that this week...or next.

This one is the large size from the pattern.
The strawberry fabric is by Hoodie for Timeless Treasures. It's one of the most perfect Grocery Bag fabrics ever, but it's no longer in print, and a quick search tells me it might be tricky to find.
The inside is lined in red and white polka dot print.

I've been noticing many beautiful things made from this Anna Maria Horner Echninacea print from her Pretty Potent collection. This print also comes in a colorway called Dim. I might need them both!

This zip pouch was made using Amy Butler's Sketchbook print and 5" high x 8.5" wide rectangular pieces of fabric, but I modified the top corners so they are the same as the corners in the zipper pouch templates.
The way those corners are drafted helps keep the pouch from bulging out at the sides next to the zipper. If you have the zipper pouch templates, you can trace one of the top corners to modify some of your other pattern pieces.
I made this pouch because I wanted to make this zip pull again to see if it was easier than I remembered. It was not. Maybe I'll try it again and eventually get used to sewing it, but it's not what I'd call fun to sew.
The finished size of this pouch is 6.75" wide x 3.5" high x 1.5" deep.
This pouch has bottom corners like in the Strap Clutch & Pleated Wristlet patterns. I like these corners a lot! They are easy to sew and I think the finished pouch sits up a little better than a box bottom pouch.
The lining is pink ticking:
