• 

  Step 1

  cut out your paper pattern
  I drew this one out myself but you can use patterns online

• 

  Step 2

  cut out your fabric pieces
  I used to layers of a bamboo cotton blend
  a fabric print for the top
  and black fleece for the bottom because it's water resistant

• 

  Step 3

  place your padding on your upside down top fabric

• 

  Step 4

  sew a line straight down the padding to keep it in place

• 

  Step 5

  sew around the padding

• 

  Step 6

  sandwich the padding between your fabric print and fleece and sew around the whole thing

• 

  Step 7

  sew a line down the wings to help them fold better

• 

  Step 8

  I did a zig-zag stich twice around

• 

  Step 9

  add your buttons or clasps to the wings

• 

  Step 10

  and your done!
