Tutorial: How to Sew an Easy Envelope Pouch (+ Free Pattern)

Would you like a small, simple, useful and pleasant sewing project? The envelope pouch is one of those quick creations that yield a pretty and truly practical result. In this tutorial, I offer you a free envelope pouch pattern, specially designed to carry a toothbrush and a tube of toothpaste. Perfect for daycare, school, work or weekend getaways, this size fits everywhere.

And the beauty of this project is that it is fully adjustable: by changing the dimensions, you can create several pouch sizes for other uses. Mini, medium, large… you adapt everything according to what you want to store. An accessible project, ideal for beginners, and so satisfying for using your fabric scraps.
