1. 

   

   You’ll need two piecess of fabric ( 37 cm x 9 cm ) . I cut a piece from the middle of the ‘ pakama ‘ fabric and one from the ends.

2. 

   

   With the front sides facing each other , sew along the edges leaving a tiny gap ( about 1 cm ) in the middle on one of the short side and another on the side ( about 5 cm ). The second gap is where you flip the coin purse inside out.




3. 

   

   After you flip the whole thing inside out , stuff it with some polyester filling. Push them in with a chopsitck( remember to push all four corners out ) . Don’t over fill, or you won’t be able to bend the tube into place.

4. 

   

   Fold one end up, this will be the outer pocket . Sew the sides up . I folded the end that have the 2nd gap , so i can just sew the gap and the pocket into place at one time.
   
   




5. 

   

   Now fold the tube backwards, leaving about 1.5-2cm on top. Sew from the bend to where the outer pocket meets. This will be the inner pocket .

6. 

   

   Hold the ends of a piece of cord together , thread the middle part thru a charm, loop it to keep it in place . Tie the open end of the cord up , push it into the tiny gap on top of the coin purse and sew the gap up .

7. 

   

   Now put in some coins and wrap it up !
