We are going to disney world!! yay!!! and my number one fear of traveling is… loosing the passports! ugh… i hate that tiny bit of anxiety that looms over you to make sure you put them somewhere safe at all times! always checking my bag to make sure it didnt some how slip out of the 2 secured zip pouches i placed them in… counting 1 2 3 4, 1 2 3 4
So my goal is to have one spot where i can fit 2 to 4 passports
cut 2 pieces 6 1/2″ x 9 1.4″ 1 outer fabric, 1 inner fabric
cut 2 pieces 6 1/2″ x 6 3/4″ Pocket pieces
For this project i used cotton and canvas, for the cotton pieces i would recommend using a medium weight stabilizer
Take the two pocket pieces and fold them in half
Top stitch down the folded edge
Place the pocket pieces on the lining fabric, make sure the sides are all lined up perfectly
Place the outer fabric on top with the right sides facing the pockets *Note the fusible stabilizer on the back of the cotton cut 1/2″ smaller
Sew around the perimeter leaving a 2″ gap at the centre of the bottom, slip the corners off being careful not to cut into the stitches
Flip the entire thing right sides out and press, top stitch all around the edges closing up the turn hole
And then your done! it turned out perfect and can easily fit 2 or 4 passports and in my case i just need 2 passports and 2 birth certificates for my little ones
