HOW TO MAKE A BAG POUCH FOR YOUR DIRTY & CLEAN MASKS 

EASY SEW WALLET DESIGN with FREE PATTERN 

Dirty reusable Masks are a problem that fabric mask wearers are dealing with so today as part of the Stay Safe series, I am introducing you to an easy wallet pouch for you to put your dirty or clean mask inside while travelling to the shops etc.

Not everyone has access to clip machines/tools or confidence to sew a buttonhole or zip, so this easy pattern is for everyone to be able to enjoy and create for your family and friends by using a slot mechanism and basic sew design.

Step by Step Beginner Vinyl Easy Wallet Picture Tutorial

INSTRUCTIONS

• Print your Free Pattern on A4 size paper, 100% scale
• Cut out the Paper Pattern
• Place your paper pattern on top of the plastic fabric
• Mark around the pattern onto the plastic with a thin marker
• Cut with sharp scissors around the edge of the pattern
• Cut the slot line on the inside of the template with a craft knife or fold over and cut with scissors 

• Fold vinyl over and clip the sides together with clothes pegs or small clamps. Do not pin Vinyl as you will leave holes

• Sew a straight long length line along each side edge (I use 3.5) & do a small backstitch at the beginning and end
• If you are hand sewing then use a sharp thin needle
• Cut loose thread for a clean finish at each end

• If you would like a way to attach to the outside of your bag, cut a small slot line in one of the corners of the wallet. If you have a leather hole punch, you can also use this
• Join two keyring loops together creating one ring at the bottom and one ring at the top. Leave one chain in the centre of both rings
• Hook the ring through the corner slit
• Alternatively, you can use a metal snap hook or a carabiner to hook to your bag.

• Place your mask inside 

When placing a worn mask inside, take the mask off from your ear, fold over from the inside, making sure you do not touch the outside of the mask. Slide into the case.

• Fold over the top wallet section and hook in the slots

Wash your mask holder after every use, you can do this by wiping down with a germ remover wipe or spray. Check the brands packaging or instructions to ensure it will kill COVID 19 germs as some do not say this.

Make a few vinyl pouches at a time so you always have one available if you are moving around to different places throughout the day and need to change your fabric mask often.

TIP - Mark the front of your mask wallet with CLEAN & DIRTY, so you will always know which one is fresh to wear
