This is the APEXpouch pdf sewing pattern from the designer The In Complete Stitch.

The APEXpouch is a versatile pouch pattern that comes in two sizes – small and large. It has two main closure options – the Drawstring APEX and the Zipped APEX that are sized to take a 30 cm or 20 cm closed ended zip.

This lovely pouch has a simple modern look with angled outer pockets that can be secured with a snap and loop closure, a simple snap closure or with a line of stitching.

The large sized APEX comes with options for internal pockets allowing you to choose to add a 20 cm zipped welt pocket and/or a subdivided angled pocket.
