self closing Mask pocket tutorial

This fits my mask in and is safe enough for it not to fall out. It means I can safely put my mask away when I am out and about.

You can use either 5 2in x 5in scraps or a piece of fabric 10in x5 in. 

If you are using scraps, sew them together to create a piece of fabric 10in x 5 in

Hem each end of the strip of fabric. 

Then fold the top 2 inches over the second 2 inches.

And then fold the rest of the fabric in half, so you should have 2 panels on each side with the top one in the middle. Then sew each side together. 

The folded over piece of fabric should be inside, sewn within the seam. 

Now turn inside out (or rightside in!)

To finish, sew each side again to neaten it up. 

pop a mask into the pocket...

and close!
