Quiltsmart Cell Phone Bag
[With directional fabric, use a fat quarter &
cut 18" x 4-1/2". Stitch 2 pieces of the same fabric
or 2 contrasting pieces to create 34-1/2" in length.]
Printed interfacing - printed with 3 per
panel. See "key". ( O marks CF of finished bag)
Cut apart interfacing on dashed lines.
Cut fabric 4-1/2" wide - one piece or
pieced. If pieced, seam can be anywhere from 1" below
Closure (towards "center") to fold "B".
Fuse interfacing to wrong side of fabric.
If fabric is directional, the end without closure
marking is the outside flap, and the lower edge of this flap should be
at the bottom of the design.
If using velcro or magnetic snaps as closures,
stitch or make snips to insert now. The snap in the middle of
the strip can be attached, but attaching snap at the end of the flap
will make it difficult to stitch around end. Do that after
stitching and turning.
Looking at interfacing, press right sides together,
fold A & fold B. Fold them to meet at "center".
Fold on center, right sides together, matching flap
ends (folds will not all be even - fold A extends beyond other 2, as
it is the outside of the bag and needs to be slightly larger.)
Position strap ends (cord or stitched fabric) at box
marking @ fold.
Stitch on solid line, leaving opening to turn
through.
Reach inside opening & turn right side
out. Both pockets should be under flap with closure on outside.
If not, turn pocket again. If no closure is yet attached and you
like the 2nd pocket on the back, leave it as is.
Finish opening, stitching by hand, or machine
edge-stitching entire flap. (Actually, I used Liqui-Fuse.)
