Pretty {Little} Pouch Swap Finished!!!!

Whoo Hooo!! Another one bit the dust!  I've finished my pouch for this swap.  Here's the start, some gathered roses. A technique I came up with while doing quilted clothing.
They are a little rough yet.  They won't be finished until the pouch is completely assembled.

The pouch with zipper and lining.  I still have to sew up the darts.  This is a very simular shape as my Blooming Purse.  In fact I think I will make a larger one for me as a purse.  This Blooming Pouch is about 6" x 8".  We were restricted in size up to 12" but I wanted to make something smaller.  The roses are 1 1/2" so 6" was perfect.

TaDa!! The finished pouch, with added fob on the zipper.  The back is solid fabric, I used the same fabric as the bottom fabric here.

Here is a close-up of the finished gathered roses.  The beads are used to tack the roses in place so they won't loose there shape.  I have posted a picture the finshed pouch on Flickr so my secret partner can see it.   I will get it in the mail to her sometime this week.  Then we just have to wait to see how she likes it.  Worry, worry, worry.
