Sweetheart Trio Pouch-Bag patroon van Minki Kim

The instructions for the three different sizes are so clear—I finished a small pouch in one afternoon with no trouble at all. The finished dimensions are exactly as listed, and the zipper installation trick was a game-changer for my sewing confidence.

I’ve made this pattern three times now, and every pouch comes together so cleanly even for a novice like me. The three-size combo is perfect for gifting—I whipped up the big one for a weekend trip and the small one for my sewing kit without re-jigging any measurements.

The dimensions are spot-on for cutting multiple sizes from one fat quarter stack, and the big bag's 11-inch height gives it real presence without being fussy. I had the whole trio sewn up in an afternoon, and the instructions made the boxed corners feel foolproof.
