Let's get started!!
To make this you will need:
◎ Main Panel
① 11¾″ × 10⅞″ (29.5㎝ × 27.5㎝) Outer layer
① 11¾″ × 10⅞″ (29.5㎝ × 27.5㎝) Lining
① 10⅞″ × 10⅛″ (27.5㎝ × 25.5㎝) Fusible fleece
① 3¼″ × 1⅝″ (8㎝ × 4㎝) Contrast Color Fabric
◎ Others
① 3″ (7.5㎝) Hook and Loop
Cut the interfacing into the shape of the pattern.
And fuse the fusible fleece, centered, to the wrong side.
Fold your Contrast color fabric in half with the width, wrong sides together to make a crease. Fold in half with height to make your tabs.
Place the tap on the center of the outer layer.
Place the right sides together of the outer and lining and sew, leaving an opening.
Cut by adding 3/8” from the edge of the interfacing.
Clip the corners and turn it right side out by pulling the fabric through the opening. Press, pin and topstitch around all the edges.
Separate the hook and loop, place it on the inside and outside, and sew.
Turn the sides up and sew the four corners on the inside.
To complete, fold both sides inward first, then the bottom up, and then the top down.
YOU ARE FINISHED!
Happy sewing!
