Smart pouch

   Hi friends,                                                                                                                                                                      I want to share with you an idea of a pouch which can be used for a wallet for  daily purchases or as a pencil pouch by students. It has two pockets too.                                                                                You will need two pieces of cloth of dimensions 9"by 6".You will need lining cloth of same dimension. I have used two layers of lining to give some strength to it. For the pocket we need two pieces of measurements 8"by 5".                                                            I have used plain cloth so that I can do some handwork on it. You can used printed cloth too.

       So now for the procedure. First fix the two ends of the zipper of length 7 1/2".Just take two strips of cloth of width of an inch, long enough to make a fold and keep along the upper and lower edge of the zipper and put a stitch across the cloth.So now your zipper is ready.

         Now  fix the lining on to the right side of cloth and stitch along the edge of the opening side of the pouch.

Now we have to fold the lining into the wrong side of the main cloth and stitch along all the sides.

Now for the pocket,first fold the open side twice and stitch along the edge.Then keep both right sides facing each other and stitch along the three sides.

Now we need to keep the zipper along the finished edge and stitch it.

Now keep the pocket on one side of the pouch and stich along the three sides.Thus you get two pockets one the pocket itself and the other the gap between the pocket and the main cloth.

Now fold the pouch right sides facing each other and stitch along the three sides.And there you go. Your smart pouch is ready.

This is one side.

And this the other.
