BABY WIPE POUCH (NO LINING)

BABY WIPE POUCH (NO LINING)

HOW I MADE THIS BABY WIPE POUCH

1 Lay out the fabric...

2 Cut out 3 pieces of 6 inches by 9 inches (Base of the pouch)

3 Cut out 4 pieces of 3 inches by 9 inches (Flap of the pouch)

4 Serge all edges of each piece of the cut outed fabric.

5 Take 2 pieces of the 6 inches by 9 inches and place them rights sides together. The package of your baby wipes that is approximately 5 inches by 8 inches will have a piece in the center or middle to pull the wipes out. Take and trace around that with tracing paper. Place in the center of the 6 inches by 9 inches and either stitch immediately around it on the two pieces that are facing right sides together or draw on the wrong side of fabric and then stitch on or around it. All in all, once stitched, fold in the center and clip to start cutting the inside of the shape. Press and turn inside out. Press all in position and top stitch.

6 Take the remaining piece of 6 inches by 9 inches and place on top with the right sides together. Stitch sides and bottom. Turning inside out and press. Set aside for now. Top will remain opened with the serged raw edges.

7 Take 2 pieces each of the 3 inches by 9 inches and place right sides together on each. Stitch sides and top and turn inside out. The bottom will remain opened with serged raw edges. These will be used to make the zipper at the top of the pouch.

8 Fold flap about 1 to 1 1/2 inches from raw edges of bottom edge on each flap. Obtain a zipper that is approximately 7 inches. Take one of the flaps at the fold and place one side of the teeth of the zipper and stitch (top stitch) along the zipper length. Take the other flap on the fold and place on the other side of the teeth and repeat. You may have to turn the edges of the zipper in (like dogs ears) while stitching or if you like make taps. Press accordingly.

9 Bring the base of the pouch together with the flaps. Place the raw edges of the top of the pouch base to the bottom of the flap on front and back of the pouch with right sides together. Stitch. Press.

Seams are ½ inch.
