How to Make a Tool Belt with Pockets and Holders (Part Three)

Let's create even more organisational pockets for Dad's Tool Belt with Pockets and Holders with part three of this project!

  2. Webbing 2cm (¾”) wide 12cm (5”)
  3. Webbing 2.5cm (1”) wide 5cm (2”)

2 - Fold the fabric piece wrong sides together. Topstitch close to the edge on all sides.

3 - Make a line 15cm (6”) in from the short edge (the one with raw edges) Also make small marks 2.5cm (1”) and 7.5cm (3”) from the right edge.

4 - Place the 2cm (¾”) wide webbing piece between the marks and let the edge of the webbing overlap about 1cm (β…œβ€). Stitch in place through all layers.

5 - Align the short edge with the drawn line and stitch in place, close to the edge. This will make the belt tunnel.
