Mother's Day Part 1

Yay! I can reveal some of my secret sewing. I made these three zipper pouches for my mother-in-law for Mother's Day. She received them in the mail today, so I can share.
 I cut up a Scrumptious charm pack into 2.5 inch squares and made one big enough for her iPad. I also double layered the batting for extra padding.  The medium pouch is a little tight for a Kindle, but it held plenty of chocolate and an Amazon gift card. The small pouch is so adorable!
My mother-in-law travels a lot, so I know she will put these pouches to good use. I still have some squares left, so I will have to come up with some more ways to use them. I will post more Mother's Day gifts after my mom gets hers on Sunday...
