About the Lemon Slice Zip Pouch
This citrus-slice shaped pouch has darts for shaping, so it can hold loads of items. Plus, it has a padded handle wristlet strap to keep it close at hand.

The zipper closure, featuring a citrus slice pull, adds fun and function to this textured, useful project. The exterior is made of Sulky Felty, and the pith is a Felty appliqué. Choose a straight stitch or blanket stitch to secure the pith to the peel pieces.

Take this pouch to the beach, the lake, on a plane or cruise.
Once you make one, you’ll want to make more in orange, lime green and even pink! Celebrate the citrus trend and carry your favorite garnishes anywhere you go this summer!
