Basic Sewing Supplies

Sewing Machine (I recommend THIS machine)
Thread – I would recommend this thread
Rotary Cutter with sharp blade (I use this brand – 45mm)

Rotary Cutting Mat (I recommend this rotating mat – it’s amazing!)

Boxy Pouch Assembly

For this Boxy Pouch, I used a Foam Interfacing (instead of batting). The Foam interfacing really provides great structure to the Boxy Pouch. I also pieced a really fun fabric panel and also used rainbow coil zipper by the yard!

Which machine should I use?

It’s really nice to choose the machine for the different steps of assembly. I used my Juki TL2010Q (with my Grid Glider table mat) to attached the zipper to the panels and then I used my Juki DU1181N to install my pull tabs and handle. And all honesty, my Juki TL2010Q could’ve handled the entire job but since I have a choice I used both machines.
