This tissue pouch bag by Sewingtimes is very convenient because you can carry tissues, medicine, and nasal sprays all in one pouch. It’s such a unique and creative idea that would be useful for those that travel or have one in their purse. There are many uses from this tissue pouch, and her designs are very cool. You can use this as a makeup bag, toiletries, or anything. You can also put face masks in the front main pockets too if not the tissues. Plus, it’s an adorable idea that would be a great gift to give someone or a stocking stuffer for the holidays. I would consider making a couple of these for myself too. Overall, it’s a great portable pouch bag and it’s inexpensive to make.

Supplies:

• plain weave outer layer fabric
• 1   23cm x 17cm (9⅛″ × 6¾″)
• 1   23cm x 18cm (9⅛″ × 7″)
• 1   23cm x 19cm (9⅛″ × 7½″)
• 3   23cm x 17cm (9⅛″ × 6¾″) plain weave cotton lining fabric
• 1 23cm (8″) Zipper
• sewing machine
• iron
• scissors
• fabric pins

Directions:

First, cut out the fabrics into the correct measurements, and iron on the fusible fleece to the outer fabric. Continue to watch SewingTimes tutorial on YouTube for full instructions and details.

Next, sew the zipper on top of the front fabric and combine the front and back pouch together.

Sewing can get complicated, but it’s a beginner-friendly tutorial if you can sew straight. I love the fabric for this bag, and you can be as creative or vibrant as you want. This is a unisex tissue pouch too, because you can choose designs catered to the person. I would love to make one of these because it will come in handy when I start traveling more. I know so many people who travel a lot, so this will be a thoughtful gift too.
