What You’ll NeedCrayon Holder Materials

Start by choosing your fabric. Then cut your fabric into the following sizes:

  • 38 x 24 cm fabric A (outer piece)
  • 38 x 14 cm fabric A (pocket)
  • 6 x 9 cm fabric A (strap)
  • Cut one piece of 38 x 24 cm of fabric B (flap)crayon holder step 1

Now it’s time for the fun part! Fold each fabric in half length-wise and sew around each piece, leaving a 1/2 cm inseam and a small gap to turn out. While sewing the outer section of the pouch, leave a small 5 cm gap in the middle of the right edge. (This is where your strap will be sewn in.)crayon holder step 3

Turn out each piece and iron.

Next, place the strap into the gap left on the outer section. Pin or clip in place. Topstitch around the bottom and the sides.

For a custom fit, place your crayons inside of the pocket. Use a ruler and a pen with disappearing ink (or a pencil) to draw crisp lines.Crayon Holder step 4
