Fabric + Supplies:
Fabric
Quilting-weight cotton is great for Exterior or Lining. Canvas or heavier for Exterior works well too. Customize interfacing selection as you wish.
Interfacing
Pellon SF101 woven fusible interfacing (or similar) OR ByAnnie's Soft and Stable (or similar) are stabilizers I like using for this project.
Zipper
All-purpose, synthetic zippers work best for this project. Longer zippers are used and trimmed to fit while constructing the pouch. Zipper by the yard also works great.
Carolyn loves using plastic snaps for this project such as these*.
*Affliated link
Bias Tape Maker (3/4") if making your own.
