return on creativity: first aid kit

I love simple sewing projects that satisfy a need.  I love them even more when I can cobble together all the necessary materials from my stash of supplies saving a trip to the store.

I created this little pouch to hold the first aid supplies in our camper.

You will need:

Two pieces of fabric (mine measured ten inches by fifteen inches)

Button

Thread

Paint

Foam stamps

1.  Sew two pieces of fabric right sides together leaving a three inch opening.

2.  Turn fabric right side out and press seams.

3.  Fold fabric three fourths from the top leaving a flap.  Fold in seams from opening.  Stitch around all sides creating a pocket.  I used a zig-zag stitch.

4.  Sew a button hole on the flap of the pouch.

5.  Stitch on a button to finish pouch.

6.  Decorate with paint and foam stamps.

Enjoy and be safe!
