Tutorial: Zip pouch for a binder or planner

Jess from Gracious Threads shares a tutorial at Fleece Fun showing how to make a zip pouch for your binder or planner. Use it to keep up with receipts or to hold your pencils. The front is made from clear vinyl so you can easily see what’s inside. The dimensions she gives will make a pouch that’s 8 1/2 x 11″ so it fits a standard size binder. You can easily adjust the size to fit any binder or planner.
