Step 1: Gather Your Materials

Before you start sewing, make sure you have all the necessary materials:

• Cotton Fabric:

  • 2 pieces of solid color fabric (30x45 cm)
  • 2 pieces of solid color fabric (3x76 cm)
  • 6 pieces of solid color fabric (6x68 cm)
  • 2 pieces of solid color fabric (3x26 cm)
  • 3 pieces of printed fabric (30x45 cm)
  • 2 pieces of printed fabric (3x76 cm)
  • 6 pieces of printed fabric (6x68 cm)

• Thermocollant (fusible interfacing):

  • 2 pieces (30x45 cm)
  • 2 pieces (3x76 cm)
  • 6 pieces (6x68 cm)
  • 1 piece (14x45 cm)

• Zipper:

  • 76 cm long

• Strap:

  • 52 cm long

• Label (optional):

  • You can create a custom label for your pouch.

• Tools:

  • Sewing machine
  • Pins or clips
  • Scissors
  • Iron

Step 2: Prepare the Fabric

• Cutting:

  • Use the dimensions provided to cut out your fabric pieces accurately.

• Applying Thermocollant:

  • Iron the thermocollant onto the backside of your fabric pieces according to the manufacturer's instructions. This will provide extra sturdiness and structure to your pouch.

Step 3: Assemble the Pouch

• Layering Fabric:

  • Place the printed fabric on top of the solid fabric with the right sides facing each other.

• Sewing the Edges:

  • Pin the layers together, aligning the edges.
  • Sew along the sides, leaving the top open. Use a straight stitch and a 1 cm seam allowance.

Step 4: Prepare the Zipper

• Attaching the Zipper:
  • Open the zipper and pin it to the top edge of the fabric, ensuring it is centered.
  • Sew the zipper in place using a zipper foot on your sewing machine.

Step 5: Completing the Pouch

• Finishing the Edges:

  • Fold the fabric down to cover the zipper and pin it in place.
  • Sew along the top edge to secure the fold and zipper.

• Adding the Strap:

  • Attach the strap to the sides of the pouch. Ensure it is securely sewn to prevent it from ripping during use.

Step 6: Final Touches

• Trimming Excess Fabric:

  • Trim any excess threads and fabric from the edges for a clean finish.

• Ironing:

  • Give the pouch a final press with the iron to smooth out any wrinkles and to set the seams.
