Upcycled Denim First Aid Case #2

Since my first First Aid Case was such a success, I decided to make a few more.  This is a second one that I tackled, tweaking it a bit.

Let's see what it looks like finished

Now onto the tutorial

Let's talk Materials

You will need:

1.  Outer Fabric (here I am using denim, but you can use anything you want)

2.  Lining Fabric (cut to the same size as the outer fabric)

3.  Two Pocket Fabric Pieces (both can be the same size, rectangular)

Cut one leg from the knees and separate into two pieces

Cut out the seam and hem

Fold one piece of the leg in half like this

cut 

Then fold the pieces in half like this

And cut 

Line up the top two pieces and the lower pieces like this

Sew them together to make two bigger pieces (these are the pocket pieces)

Hem the pieces

Layer one pocket piece on the lining fabric, making sure you leave enough room for the second pocket piece.  Sew the pocket piece onto the lining fabric in the middle.  

Measure how big you want the pockets to be.  Mine are two inches wide.

Top stitch the pockets

After top stitching all the pockets, top stitch the bottom of the top pocket piece

Top stitch the bottom pocket piece just like the top pocket piece, start with the middle

Measure and decide on the size of the pockets

Top stitch the pockets

Then, top stitch the bottom hem

So now the lining with pockets are done.  Prepare the ribbon and outer fabric

I embroidered on the outer fabric, on one end of the fabric

Layer  everything like this:  lining with pocket, ribbon, and outer fabric, right sides together

Pin the sides except for one end

Sew all sides except for one end

Turn it inside out, then fold in the opening, and top stitch

Outside

Inside

Hope you enjoy this project!
