House Pouch

So here it is, the second project from the Zakka Style book.

The back:

Floyd, the guard and helper.

"You aren't getting any of this fabric until I get some catnip!"

I like that my house pouch looks less like a house than the origional. 

I just couldn't do all the goopy lace and buttons.

Just not me.

but honestly, 

how many pincushions can one person have before 

you say Uncle??

Hmmm, maybe I'll fill it with catnip and use it as a decoy to gain access to my stash again.
