Okay, since we seem to be agreed on this Pockets for Svetlanacat project, I thought I'd list a few ideas and resources for those who might be craft challenged ;)
I'm using Amazon.com simply because they have everything and it at least lets your see what the product is.

Iron-On Transfer Paper
Crayola Fabric Markers
Embroidery Thread

If you're thinking of quilting something onto the pocket, consider using felt rather than batting so that it doesn't become too bulky.  You can also applique onto the pocket, apply lace and other types of trim.  Buttons and even badges that have a message you wish to share.
Ribbons can be sewn or glued onto the pocket, and if you decide to go the transfer route, you can copy anything onto that paper and then iron your design or illustration, photograph... whatever it is... onto the pocket.
If you have any questions about the How To of this project, I think spikesgirl58 is onboard to answer as well as myself.  PM me and I'll try to help you figure it out.

If you think you're going to participate in this, please indicate here by simply hitting the YES button, and we'll get a basic idea of where the final project is heading.
