Seam allowances are 3/8″ unless otherwise specified.
Let's get started!!
To make this you will need:
◆ Main Panel
② 5¾″ × 5″ (14.5㎝ × 12.5㎝) Outer layer
② 5¾″ × 5″ (14.5㎝ × 12.5㎝) Lining
② 5¾″ × 5″ (14.5㎝ × 12.5㎝) Fusible fleece
◆ Others
① 5″ (12.5㎝) Zipper
① 5/8″ (1.5㎝) Wide D-ring
① 1¼″ × 2″ (3㎝ × 5㎝) Outer layer
Cut the interfacing into the shape of the pattern. Fuse the fusible fleece, centered, to the wrong side.
Fold your tab fabric piece in half with the 2” sides together and press. Feed the pull tab through the hole of the d-ring. Fold in half to make your tabs.
Place the pull tap on the outer layer, secure in place with a sewing clip, then sew with 1/4″ seam allowance
Bend zipper ends in place and sew (at both the pull side and end stop side).
With assembled outer layer right side up, center zipper right side facing down along top edge. Using your zipper foot, sew along top edge using a 3/8″ seam allowance.
Place the lining, right side down on top. Pin in place. Using your zipper foot, sew along top edge using a 3/8″ seam allowance.
Attach the outer and lining to the other side of the zip the same way.
Open out, press pieces away from and top stitch on both 1/8” away from the zipper.
Flip the layers so the outer bag pieces are right sides together, and the lining pieces are right sides together.
Sew all the edges with an allowance of about 3/8″, leaving an opening on the lining.
Combine the seams so that a flat base is formed. Sew with an allowance of about 3/8″.
Turn it right side out by pulling the fabric through the opening. And sew up this opening.
YOU ARE FINISHED!
Happy sewing!
