It's been a while since I've sewn one of these Mending Kits, but inspiration came calling because more of these zines turned up and this pouch is perfect for this small book! Fix Your Clothes is something I've carried off and on, but they've been sold out in my shop for quite some time.
Then someone asked if I could get more and off I went to order them. But time has passed the next edition has come out and the cover has changed. The new cover is nice, but I felt attached to the original blue floral one.
So I asked the publisher about the original cover, and at first they thought they were sold out, but about a week later I got the message they had tracked down a handful of copies in the blue cover!
Anyway, Fix Your Clothes can be found here. The Mending Kit pattern is here on michellepatterns.com or here on etsy.
You can read about the Mending Kit pattern here (it's basically a scaled down version of the Idea Pouch).
I also wanted to point out that this pouch is good for a crochet hook case and I know a lot of the crocheters out there use tablets to carry their patterns around. Here it's shown with an iPad Mini, but if you want to use it with something this same size (5.25" x 7.9") use a button closure like the one here or move the VELCRO on the bottom up. It needs just a bit more room for the flap to fold down and the button closure makes it more flexible with the dimensions.
P.S. This cat fabric is something from Kokka. I don't know the name of it, but there's one fat eighth of it available in my etsy shop here, or you can order yardage here. The wood buttons are from Dill.
