You Will Need (6 things)

  • 1 of Fabric
  • 1 m of Thread
  • 1 Needle
  • Velcro Or
  • Button(s) Or
  • Snap Button(s)

Steps (8 steps, 60 minutes)

  1. 1

    Cut a rectangle of material.
    Width must be 2 or 3 cm longer then a pencil
    A quarter of the length will be the height of your pencil case.
    Use any material but ones that fray less are a little easier to handle.

  2. 2

    Fold the two ends in so they meet in the middle and sew along the two vertical edges. Don't sew the edges that meet in the middle!!

  3. 3

    Now turn the bigger looking pocket inside out. You will now have one pocket facing you and one not.

  4. 4

    Fold in half.

  5. 5

    Position so the pocket you turned inside out is on the bottom and the open edges of the pockets are on the top.

  6. 6

    Put the pocket on the top inside the pocket on the bottom.

  7. 7

    Now fold over the unsewn edge and hem.

  8. 8

    You can sew on velcro, buttons or popper. I used Velcro.
    ANd Finally add decorations such as felted flowers, buttons and beads.
