- You have to layer the top right sides and lining piece together followed by another waddling piece. Sewing should be done along the pouch. Then you should set it aside.
- Cut a plus 1/2? button hole elastic, which will be needed to go around the button when it it sewed on. It should be folded in half. Position the backpiece of the fabric in a way that you can easily figure out the middle of the top of the back piece. Now you need to layer with waddling underneath and the elastic should be positioned in the middle, raw edges matching. One should sew across less than 1/4? from the top, then reverse over and sewing should be repeated to secure in place. The lining piece has to be layered with the right sides together and sewing should be done along the top as done with the front piece.

You should start 1/3 from the corner on the lining and finish 1/3 way past in order to leave 1/3 in the middle of the lining so that it can be turned in the right way round. The corners should be clipped andthe right side should be turned out through the lining gap.
