Awesome DIY Pocketcard APPLICATION description

This appication is about helping you stay organized, in a quick, easy, and super-cute way. Its got six pockets, a loop for a pen, and a very simple but expandable closure. A perfect project for a beginning sewer who doesnt need any more pillows or placemats! Lets get started.

1. Cutting your fabric
Youll be cutting the body in a single layer and the pockets on the fold. Fold your lining fabric so that the raw, cut edges are matching, and place the long sides of your pocket pattern pieces along the fold.

-the body: cut 1 of your outer fabric (the canvas), and one of your lining (the quilting cotton)

-the pockets: cut 1 of the lining fabric on the fold for each pocket

2. preparing your fabric
The first step is ironing your fabrics. Following the manufacturers instructions, apply the interfacing to the wrong side of your outer fabric. Let it cool slightly before applying the second layer. Iron your pockets so that they each have a nice crease along the top, and they are all the same width.

3. start with the pockets
1. Line up your pockets by size, with the largest on the bottom and the smallest on top, and baste them onto the body lining along the bottom.

4. Sew a line down the center to divide your three pockets into six. To find the exact center, fold in half and iron a crease, and then sew along the crease.

5. the closure

- Using a ruler, sewing gauge, or tape measure, find and mark the center point on both short ends of the outside body. On the right hand side, mark a spot about 1 and 1/8th of an inch in. Thats where youll sew on your button (by hand). My button is 5/8 wide, but you could use any size bigger than 1/2.

- marking where to sew your button where to sew your elasic loop

6. On the left hand side, use your sewing machine to baste the elastic loop in place at the spot you marked. I used an elastic hair tie, which I snipped down to 3.5 and folded into a loop.

7. Its very important that the button and elastic tie are lined up exactly, otherwise closing your mini pocketbook is going to be a challenge!

8. line up the button with the elastic loop

9. now for the pen loop

- Cut a 2.5 length of ribbon for the pen loop. I used 5/8 wide grosgrain ribbon, but you could use any kind of ribbon, another length of elastic, a strip of fabric, or anything, really. Use a longer length (or something stretchy) if you plan on using an unusually large pen or marker.
Baste it in place along the edge of the large pocket, just to keep it out of the way of the button loop.

- ribbon for the pen loop baste the loop in place

- Almost ready to sew your body to the lining! But first, to make finishing a bit easier, I recommend pressing down a 3/8 seam allowance along the top. You could eyeball it, but heres what I do anytime I need to guarantee a perfectly straight pressed edge

10. Placing the body and the lining with right sides facing, baste them together along the top with the longest basting stitch on your machine, using a 3/8 seam allowance.
baste along the top with right sides together press the seam allowance open

11. Then, press the seam allowance open. When you rip out the basting stitches, youll have perfectly pressed edge on both the body and the lining that are straight and even. Hooray!

Now you are ready to sew both pieces together!
