    How to Sew a Zipper Pouch with Dandelion Embroidery

    September 16, 2020 /

    Sew a Zipper Pouch + Embellish with Dandelion Embroidery Learn how to sew a zipper pouch that’s fully lined with a professional finish. Plus, add a machine embroidered dandelion that “blooms” when brushed. A fun tassel on a key ring that makes a special zipper pull provides a little something “extra” to this great gift idea.
