Today I made a cute diamond-shaped pouch. You can use it as a coin purse or earphone pouch or a lip balm holder. And if you give this to someone, everyone will love it.

Share this video with a lot of people who need it.
Seam allowances are 1/4″ unless otherwise specified.
Let's get started!!
To make this you will need:
Outer layer ( Quilting Cotton )
1 4″ × 4″ (10.2㎝ × 10.2㎝)
1 4¼″ × 4¼″ (10.5㎝ × 10.5㎝)
1 1¼″ × 4¾″ (3㎝ × 12㎝)
Lining ( Quilting Cotton )
1 4″ × 4″ (10.2㎝ × 10.2㎝)
1 4¼″ × 4¼″ (10.5㎝ × 10.5㎝)
2 2¼″ × 1¼″ (5.5㎝ × 3㎝)
Zipper
1 4¾″(12㎝)
Mid-weight woven fusible interfacing (Pellon SF-101 Shape Flex’ or ‘Vilene G700’)
1 4″ × 4″ (10.2㎝ × 10.2㎝)
1 4¼″ × 4¼″ (10.5㎝ × 10.5㎝)
The pattern for making this can be drawn by yourself by watching my YouTube video.
With assembled outer layer right side up, center zipper right side facing down along top edge. Place the lining, right side down on top. Pin in place.
Using your zipper foot, sew along top edge using a 1/4″ seam allowance.
Open out, press pieces away from the zipper. 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.
Fold the strip in half, wrong sides together to make a crease. Then fold each edge in toward the middle and press. Stitch along long edge of the strip, 1/8” from the edge.
Place the strip on the right side of the back panel and sew.
Place the outer layer of the back panel on the right side of the zipper panel and sew about 2″.
Place the lining of the back panel on the wrong side of the zipper panel and sew with an allowance of about 1/4″, leaving a 2″ opening.
Turn inside out. Sew up this opening by manual.
Combine the seams of the both sides so that a flat base is formed. Sew with an allowance of about 1/4″.
Apply small fabrics of the lining on the both sides.
Turn right side out, and the diamond coin purse is ready!
YOU ARE FINISHED!
Happy sewing!
