'Leisure' Test out

hmnnn as I need to brush up my sewing skills + embroidery work, i decided to do a design of my latest purchase.
the color of the bird/leg is off because the machine told me 'olive green' and i didnt know its for the eyes. i mean ya, i know its for the eyes but i thought there's supposed to have another touch up for the pupil. Bad mistake.

Once I've done the design, I thought of doing a zip around the 3edges. However, since i havent done any zips since Secondary school, i decided to give up the idea. Plus, i do not have a zip thats so long.

Earlier on, I have problems finding the tension of my machine for embroidery so I've some failed designs. So i go through them and see how to cut the fabrics out and recycle them. In the end, I decided to do a pouch for my CF card and adapter. I decided to try interfacing too that I've bought. All of them are pretty new to me so its 1st time trying things out. However, i feel that i should have added Cotton-cushion in between the fabrics.

Anyway there's some mistakes here n there. I put on the lining pockets after i sew lining to the cover. hehehe so u can imagine the back of the item.

My finished project.......... score 3/10 for the effort




CF cards sit nicely inside the pockets.
