Supplies Youll Need
How to Make Fabric Phone Case
Gather everything youll need?
What about your fabric?
Did you pick out something fun, colorful, textured, and just pretty to boot?
Then youre all set to begin.
Next, place the wadding on top.
You will notice that the measurements for the wadding are smaller than the outer fabric.
You will need a couple of sewing pins to secure the wadding to the fabric.
Step 3
Now fold the fabric and wadding in half, as seen here.
Secure all the edges using sewing pins and head on over to the sewing machine.
Step 4
Stitch both sides of the fabric.
Now its time to flip the swatch inside out so that the printed side is facing out.
Just set it aside for a bit while you work on the pocket.
Now fold the left and right side of this swatch inside, at about half an inch.
You will also need to fold the bottom, so go ahead and fold it and iron it.
Go ahead and pin the swatch in place if you like.
Step 7
Sew the pocket onto the lining on three sides, leaving the top side open.
Next, fold the entire lining fabric in half and secure the edges with pins.
verify that the pins are a quarter of an inch away from the edges.
Stitch up the two sides, as seen below, leaving a quarter inch allowance on either side.
Feel free to cut away the excess if you gotta.
This might be necessary to help you fit the lining into the main fabric.
Step 8
The next step is to insert the lining into the main fabric.
Simply use your hands and fingers to push the fabric in and smoothen out the edges.
Also poke out the corners of the fabric so that they point out.
Just remember to tuck the fabric in so that the wadding is well hidden.
Once you fold the printed fabric inside to cover the fabric, secure it with a pin.
Pin the lining, the wadding, and the printed fabric in place on both sides.
Now head on over to your sewing machine and sew the two sides around the mouth of the pouch.
Step 9
Do you want to decorate your pouch and jazz it up?
Feel free to sew a button enclosure.
Sew on another button on the other side, too.
Go on and slip your phone inside to look to see if it fits snug.
you’re free to use the pocket inside to store your cards and a little money, too.
