Tic-Tac-Toe for those on the go!
My niece's birthday is coming up and she loves kitties, pink, and purple. I wanted to give her a game - and Tic-Tac-Toe is perfect for her age. She's a girly girl, so I wanted to make it fun and pretty! The game in a purse form was perfect.

Step 1You need a 16" x 16" piece of batting, fabric for the outside of the pouch, and fabric for the inside of the pouch.
-
Step 2On the fabric that will be the inside of the purse (the tic-tac-toe board) sew 4 stripes to make the board pattern. I sewed them 5.5" from the edge to make 5" squares after sewing with a .5" seam allowance.
-
Step 3Then take the outside fabric and chalk a circle on it. Try to make it really big. Chalk this on the RIGHT side of the fabric.
-
Step 4Then somewhere on that circle line sew a button hole. I made mine about .5" inches long.
-
Step 5Then layer as following from bottom up:
Batting
Inside board fabric (right side facing up)
Outside fabric (wrong side facing up) -
Step 6Sew around the edges (.5" seam allowance), and remember to leave about a 3" gap to flip the fabric out. After sewing I clipped the corners and snipped the sides.
-
Step 7After flipping it inside out, the batting should now be on the inside. I ironed it flat and then used the chalk circle drawn earlier as a reference to sew two circles through all of the layers. The button hole should fit between both circles.
-
Step 8Cording was pulled through the circle and closed with a cord stop.
-
Step 9Don't forget hand sew that 3" gap from earlier!
-
Step 10Ta-da! You've got a Tic-Tac-Toe Pouch!
I made my play pieces from felt, embroidery thread, and a little stuffing, but you can use whatever you want!
-
Step 11To close simply pile the pieces together in the middle of the circle, pull on the cord, and use the cord stop to cinch it tight.
