A small pouch with three zips

What makes the Trousse ZeepZeepZeep different? Its three zips set side by side along the top.

They give it its original look while keeping the contents easy to reach. Its compact shape means you can use it in many ways: pencil case, sewing pouch, small storage pouch, or a pouch to slip into your bag.

The choice is yours.

A fully lined pouch

No skimping on the inside: the Trousse ZeepZeepZeep is fully lined for neat finishes.

You can play with fabric combinations and choose a different fabric for the outside and the lining.

It is also a project that needs very little fabric — a good excuse to dig through your stash and give your scraps a second life.

A fairly simple sewing project

Despite three zips that can look intimidating at first, the Trousse ZeepZeepZeep stays relatively simple and quick to sew.

The video tutorial guides you through each stage, from cutting the pieces to the final seams.

It is an ideal project if you want to practise sewing a zip while making something useful.
