Dan!

Here's a tool pouch I made for my friend Dan. He made the mistake of letting me pick the colours, hence the somewhat goofy palette. Folded design. And in typical Leif Labs fashion, the pattern is overly complicated. I don't think it needs the rounded flap...but it does make it look like a tiny messenger bag...sexy sexy.
I probably made these too deep. I think five inches would've been better (these are six).
3D inside pockets. I like making pockets like this--where I sew the bottom edge first and then fold it up. I think it takes some stress off of the bottom stitching...especially if you're putting sharp things in your pockets.
