My gear list

• 2 twill rectangles of 17 x 23 cm for the outside of the pouch;
• 2 printed cretonne rectangles of 17 x 23 cm for the lining and 2 of 17 x 4 cm for the wings;
• 2 points with rounded edges 5.5 cm in base and 14 cm in height in each of the two fabrics for the ears;
• 1 spool of assorted thread;
• 1 m of satin ribbon;
• Pins.

STEP 1:

1. Shape the 17 x 4cm rectangles using the iron to create the backstage of the pouch.
2. Fold the ribbon in half widthwise and mark the fold.
3. Fold down 0.5 cm on each side lengthwise. Iron. Do the same with the other edge of the ribbon. Iron.
4. Fold each end of the slides over 1 cm and iron.

STEP 2:

Topstitch each end of the two guides 6 mm from the edge.

STEP #3:

Center and pin the slides on the right side of the large twill rectangles 4 cm from one of the short sides.

STEP 4:

Topstitch the channel 1 mm from the edge of each of the long sides.

STEP 5:

Pin each cretonne ear to a twill ear right sides together.

STEP 6:

To shape the ears:

1. Stitch 1 cm from the edge, leaving the base of the ear unstitched to be able to turn it over. Notch the tip.
2. Turn the ear to the right side.
3. Topstitch 1 mm from the edge.

STEP 7:

At the base of the ears, fold the corners inward on the side of the printed cretonne. Pin them, twill against twill, 5 cm from the sides of a large rectangle, on the edge close to the channel.

STEP 8:

Place the 2 lining rectangles on each of the twill rectangles, right sides together. Pin together the edge closest to the channel.

STEP 9:

Stitch 1 cm from the edge.

STEP 10:

Return to the location. Iron. Topstitch 6 mm from the edge.

STEP 11:

Unfold each of the two assemblies, and pin them one on the other, right sides together, making the two cretonne rectangles and the two twill rectangles coincide.

STEP 12:

Stitch all around 1 cm from the edge, leaving an opening at the base of the lining to be able to turn the whole thing over.

STEP 13:

Pinch each of the corners of the lining and the outside of the pouch to give thickness by overlapping the bottom and side seams, thus forming a point.

STEP 14:

Sew perpendicular to the bottom seam, 2 cm from the end of the point.

STEP 15:

Turn the pouch right side out through the opening left in the lining.

STEP 16:

Pin and topstitch the bottom of the lining 1mm from the edge.
