A little about me:
I’m a stay at home mom to two beautiful children, and I’m married to my best friend! Family is so important to me and they are truly my inspiration for everything I do! This is me : )

{Here is what you will need}
- 2 pieces of fabric roughly 12.5” x 5.5”
- a button or velcro
- and your basic sewing materials (thread, sewing machine, scissors)

{Tutorial}
1. Take your 2 rectangles and sew them right sides together with 1/4” seam allowance. Leave a small space in the bottom for turning. 

Step 1


2. Clip corners and turn fabric right side out. Press. Press down your seam in the space you left open. We will top stitch this later.

Step 2

3. Tri fold your rectangle and press.  

Step 3


4. Then you are going to leave the “flap” up and top stitch around the 2 sides and top. I chose not to top stich across the bottom. This creates the pouch.

Step 4

5. Now just make a button hole on the flap and sew on your button and your done!

Easiest Pouch Ever right?
