Who doesn’t love a pretty bag to store notions and other crafty essentials. Bonus if it’s got a zipper and a pocket to store treats!
The Goody Goody Binding Kit definitely checks all those boxes. Vanessa Goertzen of Lella Boutique designed this bag and she has a free tutorial for it on her blog.
Her trick for zipper installation worked like a charm. Who knew that good old Elmer’s school glue would make installing the zipper such a breeze! So much better than using pins and having your fabric pieces shift while sewing.
I did have some shifting but nothing that can’t be concealed within the outer seams 😉
My Goody Goody is in progress and I love all the little details and different fabrics that you can use. The possibilities are endless.
The front is quilted with straight lines, 1/2 inch apart. Gotta love that walking foot!
Vanessa designed this binding kit to keep all of your quilt binding essentials in one place. However, I think it would work perfectly for a variety of craft related notions… hexie making stuff, knitting bits and bobs, travel organizer!

Your fabric choices are so great for this! I hope to get around to making “my version” soon. 🙂

I’ve never used glue to install zippers, maybe I’ll have to try it! Of course…I’ve only ever installed FOUR zippers ever…so, I could definitely use the help! 😉

Very cute. I love your fabrics!
