Malvern Zipper Pouch sewing pattern, classic zipper bag to sew in 4 sizes + video
Anyone need to learn how to sew a zipper bag? Then I have the perfect easy zipper pouch pattern and video class for you. Introducing the Malvern Zipper Pouch. Malvern is a set of 4 different sized zipper bags with an easy-sew construction method.
The Malvern Zipper Pouch is a simple sew, doesn’t need many materials and will be your go-to zipper bag to sew. Use it as a phone pouch, a clutch bag, a pencil and pen case, or a cosmetics bag. There are 4 sizes of zipper bag in this one pattern so there will always be one that exactly meets your needs. Need it even larger – no problem. The pattern is easy to scale up, just use a longer zip and add a little extra to the width and height measurements when you cut. Make it square, rectangular, long and thin – it’s so easy to customise.
Want something soft and padded? That works too. You can add fusible fleece as an option on top of the interfacing for the larger sizes.

- 4 sizes included in the same pattern
- Easy construction method
- The instructions come as a PDF download and include step by step written instructions with photos
