batninja Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 Here is my lazy Sunday afternoon project: The Velcro is facing forward, as I intend to attach them under the chest armor as opposed to sewing them to the cummerbund. These measure 6"x7"x2". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maelstrom Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 how did you sew the flap? Did you sew them together then turn them inside out? I like how crisp your edges look and am unsure what changes i need to make to make mine look similar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
batninja Posted October 15, 2012 Author Share Posted October 15, 2012 The pattern I use is similar to what's posted here on the forum, but it's all one piece. I cut two, sew them together, and turn them inside-out. Lots of ironing, too. The pouches are two-ply, all the way through. I top-stitch the edges to give them a sharper look.

Maelstrom Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 Okay i haven't ironed them yet, and I think i should redo the top stitches Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like how crisp your edges look and am unsure what changes i need to make to make mine look similar Just iron the fabric flat mate, it will look loads better. I oron everything flat before I start and then again once the flap is turned inside out. You shouldnt get those crease while building it.

batninja Posted October 15, 2012 Author Share Posted October 15, 2012 I'll see if I can get the pattern online today or tomorrow. It's really not that different from the one already posted, except that it's all one piece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

batninja Posted October 16, 2012 Author Share Posted October 16, 2012 Well, here 'tis. One square equals one inch. Contrary to this diagram, my actual pattern is 7x6x2.5", but it can be modified to any dimensions, I suppose. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
