Drawstring travel jewelry pouch – free pattern
|It’s always a good idea to keep your jewelry in some kind of storage bag. That way when you travel with it, it doesn’t end up in a tangled mess. Or you don’t end up with a single earring and wonder where the other one went.
Here we have a FREE pattern for an amazing Drawstring Travel Jewerly Pouch. The pouch has eight, wedge-shaped pockets to hold necklaces, earrings, rings, and watches. The pouch gathers up with a drawstring, safely enclosing the pockets in an upright position.
If you cut carefully, a ½ a yard of each of two cotton prints will yield two matching pouches – one for you and one for a friend. When flat, the pouch is an approximately 12″ diameter circle. When cinched up tightly, it fits in the palm of your hand.
