Circular Cookie pouch with narrow gusset and zipper
Today I want to share with you a sewing project that is practical, beautiful, and will also help you improve your sewing skills..
The Cookie pouch is a pattern that has only two pieces. It’s a simple project that won’t take you more than an hour to sew. You can make it with a variety of fabrics because its shape allows it, and you’ll practice a series of skills that you’ll later use in other projects.
This is a handy pouch that you’ll use for many things. As a coin purse to carry your essentials in your bag and have them quickly at hand, to carry your emergency kit during your period days, for your cosmetics on weekend getaways…
Why make a circular pouch?
A circular pouch is not only functional but also has a unique design. Its rounded shape makes it compact and distinctive, and by incorporating a narrow gusset, the pouch gains structure. Additionally, you’ll learn how to insert a zipper neatly and how to work with fabrics in curved shapes, which is a valuable skill for more advanced sewing projects.
What you will learn with this project
This project is ideal whether you’re just starting out in sewing or already have some experience. Here are some of the techniques you’ll be able to practice and improve:
- Handling curved shapes: We will work with rounded pieces, learning how to sew them so they turn out perfect.
- Inserting zippers: Aprenderás a coser una cremallera en un proyecto pequeño, algo que requiere precisión pero que da grandes resultados.
- Cosido de un fuelle estrecho: El fuelle añade espacio útil al neceser, y dominar esta técnica te será útil en muchos otros proyectos de bolsos y accesorios.
¿Qué necesitas para empezar?
Para realizar este neceser solo necesitarás algunas herramientas y materiales básicos:
- Tela para el exterior y el forro (puedes elegir combinaciones divertidas y coloridas).
- Si usas tejidos finos para el tejido exterior los puedes entretelar o coser una guata para dar firmeza.
- Una cremallera preferentemente que combine con tus tejidos.
- Aguja, hilo, tijeras y tu máquina de coser.
¡Anímate a crear algo diferente!

Note: The sewing process shown in the video is personal and indicative. This is how I sewed it. There are other processes to reach the same result and here I explain one of them. Include your own solutions or add new details that do not appear in the video. It is possible that you have sewn something similar in some occasion and that you have done some part of the process in a different way. All options are valid. I advise you to try several and then decide which one you find most comfortable to sew.
