Sewing Of Coin Purse With Velcro Closure, Half Moon Shape

Sider Fusion

Sewing a coin purse with a Velcro closure in a half-moon shape is a fun and manageable project! Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you make one.

Materials Needed:

• Fabric: Choose your outer fabric and lining (cotton, canvas, or felt work well).
• Velcro strips: One piece for closure.
• Sewing machine (or hand sewing supplies): Needles, thread matching the fabric, pins/clips.
• Scissors or rotary cutter
• Fabric marking tool or chalk
• Optional: Interfacing for extra sturdiness.

Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Cut Your Fabric:

   • Cut two half-moon shapes from the outer fabric and two from the lining. The size can be around 6 inches wide and 3 inches high, but you can adjust dimensions as desired.
   • If using interfacing, cut it the same size as the outer fabric pieces.

2. Prepare the Velcro:

   • Cut a strip of Velcro about 2-3 inches long. You’ll attach one part to the lining and one part to the outer fabric.

3. Interface (if using):

   • Iron the interfacing onto the wrong side of the outer fabric pieces to give them added structure.

4. Sew the Velcro:

   • Attach one side of the Velcro to the center of one of the outer fabric pieces and the other side to the center of one of the lining pieces. You can sew straight lines or a box pattern for added security.

5. Sew the Purse:

   • Place the two outer fabric pieces right sides together and sew around the curved edge, leaving the straight edge open. Use a 1/4-inch seam allowance.
   • Repeat with the lining pieces, but leave a 2-3 inch gap on the straight edge of the lining for turning the purse later.

6. Trim the Edges:

   • Carefully trim the seam allowance around the curve to reduce bulk, without cutting into the stitches.

7. Turn the Purse:

   • Turn the outer fabric right side out, and push out the seams for a nice shape.
   • Then, turn the lining piece right side out as well.

8. Insert the Outer Fabric:

   • Place the outer fabric inside the lining (right sides together) so that the edges align.

9. Sew the Top Edge:

   • Sew around the top edge (the open edges of the lining and outer fabric).

10. Turn the Purse Right Side Out:

    • Pull the outer fabric through the gap in the lining and align the edges.

11. Finish the Lining:

    • Tuck the lining inside the purse, and sew the gap closed (you can do this by hand for a neat finish).

12. Final Touches:

    • Press your purse and ensure the Velcro aligns properly when closed.

Tips:

• Customize your coin purse with embellishments like embroidery or fabric paint.
• Use contrasting thread for a decorative touch along the seams.
