The Lucky Pouch

To make this little pouch you needs:
-meter ribbon
-scissors
-ribbon of 60cm
-the fabric of your choice in 23x55cm
-thread
-needle
or a sewing machine which you'll adjust in tension of the thread to 4 with a tight  point  and a needle adapted to the fabric( here fine, thus one 70/10 )

Take the fabric of your choice and cut so as to obtain a rectangle of 23cm by 55cm, then fold lengthwise to double fabric.

Make a seam at least 2cm from the edge (it depends on the width of your your ribbon) towards the fold fabric. It to create a channel for the ribbon.

For the second channel for the ribbon, fold up the opposite side to create a wide seam of 2cm as on the other side.

Then, fold fabric in two so as to have the seams outside, and the channels lined up one on top of the other.

Sew both sides to close the little pouch.
CAREFUL, don't sew over your channels otherwise you can't thread your ribbon!

To finish, turn completely the little pouch so that the seams are not visible.

Thread the ribbon through the channels (you can help with a safety pin if you want) and make an attractive knot.

And now it's done! 
A nice little pouch =)
