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.

Half Moon Change Purses

In the early part of 2023 I made these two half moon change purses, but for some reason they did not get posted.  Came across them this morning while overlooking blog postings.  The photos where uploaded and left sitting in draft postings.  Therefore, I am publishing the post today.  🧵🪡

 

Half Moon Change Purse Sewing Project

Sider Fusion

A half moon change purse is a fun and functional sewing project! Here’s a simple guide to help you create one.

Materials Needed:

• Fabric: Choose an outer fabric and a lining fabric (about 1/4 yard each).
• Zipper: A 7-8 inch zipper works well.
• Interfacing (optional): To give your purse more structure.
• Sewing machine and thread: Matching thread for your fabrics.
• Scissors or rotary cutter: For cutting fabric.
• Pins or clips: To hold fabric pieces together.
• Measuring tape or ruler: For accurate measurements.

Instructions:

1. Cut Your Fabric:

   • Cut two half-moon shapes from your outer fabric. Each piece should be approximately 7-8 inches wide and 4-5 inches high, adjusting based on your desired size.
   • Cut two matching shapes from your lining fabric.
   • If using interfacing, cut it the same size as your outer pieces.

2. Interface (if using):

   • Iron the interfacing onto the wrong side of the outer fabric pieces to add stability.

3. Attach the Zipper:

   • Take one outer piece and one lining piece. Place the zipper face down along the top edge, with the outer fabric on top.
   • Pin or clip the zipper in place and sew along the edge, using a zipper foot.
   • Fold the fabric back and topstitch to secure the zipper.

4. Sew the Other Side:

   • Repeat the same step for the other side of the zipper with the second outer fabric piece and lining piece.

5. Finish the Bag:

   • With right sides together, sew around the curved edges of the purse, leaving the lining side open for turning.
   • Be careful around the zipper—it helps to leave a 1/4 inch seam allowance.

6. Turn the Purse:

   • Turn the purse right side out through the opening in the lining.
   • Push out the curved edges carefully.

7. Finish the Lining:

   • Once the purse is turned out, sew the opening in the lining closed either by hand or with a machine.
   • Tuck the lining inside the purse.

8. Final Touches:

   • Give the purse a good press with an iron to flatten the seams and give it a neat look.

Tips:

• Personalization: You can add embellishments like fabric paint, patches, or embroidery.
• Variations: Try using different shapes or sizes for a unique look.

Conclusion

This half-moon change purse is a great project for beginners and can be customized in numerous ways. Enjoy your sewing, and feel free to ask if you have any questions on specific steps!
