How I made it.
Here are the instructions.
1. Draw and cut out pattern to desired size. The desired size you choose should then cut out 1 inch square on each side at the bottom. (See pattern drawing above in photo).
2. Cut out 4 pieces of fabric each of the pattern. Either all the same or two of the same kind of fabric.
3. Place with 2 pieces of the fabric right sides together. Stitch a seam allowance of 1/4 inch on the sides and bottom. Leave on one side of one of them about a 2 inch unstitched section that will be used to turn the pouch in side out.
4. Press all seams open.
5. At the bottom bring the opening together to make square corners.
6. Take the one that does have the opening and turn inside out. Then take the other and insert with right sides together and meet accordingly at the top at seam allowances. Stitch a 1/4 inch seam allowance around top.
7. Find the area with the hole and pull through the fabric to form the bag or pouch. Press accordingly. Either hand stitch or machine stitch the hole close. Insert in as the lining.
8. Press.
9. Top stitch.
10. Either use velcro or snaps to bring together and close.
Actual size 4 inches by 3 1/2 inches
Box or squared corners 1 3/4 inches
Options.
You can use interfacing or batting to enhance the shaping and stiffen.
Quilting is another option.

Repurposing a men's shirt into a stylish and functional bag is an excellent way to upcycle fabric scraps. Here are a few creative projects you might consider:Southern Living+1Pinterest+1
Tote Bag from a Men's Shirt
Transform a button-down shirt into a chic tote bag by utilizing the shirt's existing features, such as pockets and buttons, to add character. This project involves cutting the shirt into rectangular pieces for the bag's body and lining, sewing them together, and adding sturdy straps. A detailed tutorial can be found here:
Drawstring Bag from Shirt Sleeves
Utilize the sleeves of the shirt to create small drawstring bags. By sewing the bottom of the sleeve closed and adding a drawstring to the top hem, you can make handy pouches for various uses. This method is quick and makes use of smaller fabric pieces. Instructions are available here:
Handbag with Wooden Handles
Create a unique handbag by combining shirt fabric with wooden handles. This design repurposes the shirt's material for the bag's exterior and adds a complementary lining. The tutorial provides step-by-step instructions:
