make up pouches

As you all know, I love a good zipper project.  My aunt had asked me to make her a make up pouch to replace one of hers that had seen better days.  She's an avid sewer and gave me a few scraps to use (yeah, I know Mary, I can hear you laughing now about me using the word avid to describe your sewing). 

I ended up making two just because!  I find it easier to do a couple zipper projects at once because you'll be swapping to the zipper foot anyway.  For these pouches I used a combination of linens/quilting cottons and did a few quilting lines on each (they have quilt batting in the middle). 

I think these are so fun and functional.  As far as I know, I've pretty much given almost all the women I know a zippered make up pouch from me within the past year. In fact, I should probably keep track of that, can one ever have too many pouches?!  Do you have a favorite go-to project?
