Place the cut template on the embroidery and pass a thread all around, extending it to the bottom of the fabric to mark the final contour of the pouch.

Place the piece of fabric intended for the inside part of the work under the embroidered fabric and pin the 2 parts.

Prepare 2 small pieces of fabric 11cm x 4cm and fold across the width.

Sew these 2 pieces to the ends of the zipper for a neater finish.

This is the lower part of the inside pocket. It measures 13 cm high up to the zipper and add 2 cm (fold) for the sewing flap of the zipper. Sew along the zipper over the entire width of the fabric (it is a little wider than the pocket is about 26 cm).

Align and pin the finished pouch to the bottom of the inner fabric. Sew a button about 3 cm from the edge of the pocket and 5 cm above the zippered pocket. It will be used to tie the cord to slide the threads to embroider. I cut the butterfly into a small needle pad about 10cm x 7cm. I stuffed it with synthetic wadding and fixed it with small hidden stitches on the upper part of the lining.

Place the embroidery (1st part) on the table with the right side towards you. Then place the zippered part with the right down on the embroidery and perfectly aligned, add a small thin fleece plate the height of the pocket and pin it firmly.

Turn the work and sew all the parts together on 3 sides ( leaving the bottom open)  following the thread laid at the beginning of the work along the template. then pin the bottom.

Turn the work over on the right side. Close the bottom with small hidden stitches. Iron seams well. To lay the cords, I opened the seams a little bit, inserted the cords and closed them tightly with hidden stitches. I know it’s not very usual, but it works.

That’s it, the tedious assembly work is finished. I hope you didn’t get discouraged and are happy with the result.
