Steps (9 steps, 30 minutes)

1. 1

   This is the template I used for making the pyramid pouch. It includes 4 equilateral triangles and a strip. The triangles are for the body of the pouch and the strip will be the handle of the pouch. Notice that I've numbered the pieces with alphabets- a,b,c,d and e, for clear instructions.

2. 2

   Simply cut the 5 pieces from the leather according to the template, make sure to cut the pieces neatly.

3. 3

   Place the piece 'a' over the piece 'b' as shown in the picture. The right side of both pieces should touch each other, with their wrong side facing out. Sew the sides and remember that the zipper will be attached in the center of these two pieces.

4. 4

   The length of the gap between the two triangles should be equal to the length of the zipper, so make sure to cut the zipper accordingly. Take the zipper, place it between the two sewed triangles (on the wrong side of the opening). Sew along the sides of the zipper with the triangles. * Don't forget to keep the zipper half open while sewing the triangles.

5. 5

   Place the 3rd piece (c) on any one of the sewed triangles, with it's wrong side facing up. Sew along the edges where both triangles meet.

6. 6

   Similarly attach the last piece (d) as shown in the picture.

7. 7

   Notice that I've marked the sides of stitched pieces with different colors (yellow, red and blue). You have to sew the similar colored sides together.

8. 8

   Take the piece 'e'. Fold it into half and place it insides the pouch along the edge of the open end. Hold it tight along the edge of the open end and sew along the edge. Sew 2 times over the strip (handle).

9. 9

   Done sewing all sides? Now, simply turn the right side of the pouch out through the open end (through the open zipper). There, done! You can add designs on it if you want to, enjoy!
