Would you like a pouch? With ruffles to make it beautiful :-) This is how you can sew it thanks to this step by step tutorial by Léa ...

tuto pochette froufrou

Material :

  • 40cm of fabric for the pouch (exterior)

I chose a "wild pansy" cotton poplin from  the collection By Léa 

  • 30 cm of fabric for the lining (interior)

Idem a cotton fabric with flowers but in another color

Step 1 : the flap

Arrange the 2 parts of the flap right sides together and sew a stitch on the edge while leaving the right part open. Turn it over and iron.

Step 2 : the ruffles

Take the long strip of fabric and fold it in half in the length,  wrong sides together. Make a seam with the most wide stitch along the opening. You will be able to gather immediately afterwards by pulling one of the threads.

Step 3 : Place the ruffles

Take one of the sides for the exterior and sew the corners like this :

Place and pin the obtained ruffles on the right side of the piece. It's up to you to gather so that the length matches.

Step 4 : Place the flap

Take the other side for the exterior on which you have to put the flap like this :

poser le rabat

Then place the last piece of the pattern ("top of the back") right sides together:

And sew all the way at 1cm. You now have the back of your pocket.

Step 6 : the lining

Let's move on to the inner part: sew the corners as in the first part then place the 2 pieces right sides together. Sew  the edges, leaving an opening of +/- 10cm to be able to turn the pouch over.

Tuck the outer part into the lining like this:

Step 7 : snap buttons

Place the snap buttons of your choice 6cm from the side edge and 3cm from the bottom on the flap. Then position your flap and mark beneath it to match the second part of the snap button.

All you have to do is fill your pouch with ruffles!
