Materials
---------
Fabric
^^^^^^
* Strong outer fabric, such as canvas or cordura;
* lightweight but abrasion resistant lining fabric, such as cotton print
or ripstop nylon;
* optional: mesh.
Notions
^^^^^^^
* Sewing thread (cotton for cotton, polyester for syntetics);
* stabilizing foam;
* zipper and slider (by the meter is easier to work with);
* edge binding tape;
* optional: webbing;
* optional: elastic edge binding tape;
* optional: cord.
Pattern
-------
Draw a rectangle as big as you want the finished pouch to be, with
rounded corners, measure its perimeter P.
Measure the side that you want to keep closed, minus 6 cm, let it be B.
The length of the zipper will be P - B plus 1 cm.
Cut the following parts:
* the basic rectangle plus 1 cm sewing allowance on all sides in fabric,
lining and stabilizer;
* a rectangle as wide as B and as high as the depth of the finished
pouch, plus 1 cm sewing allowance on all sides in fabric and lining;
* a rectangle as wide as the length of the zipper and 1.5 cm shorter
than the depth of the finished pouch, in fabric and lining;
* two squares of lining 5×5 cm.
Instructions
------------
Apply any accessory or decoration to the main fabric bases.
Prepare any internal accessory and apply it to the lining and stabilizer
bases, treated as one.
Zippered pocket
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Cut a rectangle of mesh (or lining fabric) as big as the base.
Sew a zipper on top of the rectangle.
Carefully cut the mesh / fabric below the zipper and fold it back
towards the fabric; sew 2 mm from the previous seam to keep it in place.
.. tip::
If the fabric you're using frays, cover the raw edge with tape.
Place the mesh on top of the lining on top of the stabilizer, and sew
all around the edges with a 5 mm allowance.
Elastic bound pocket
