Our rectangle turned out 55x26 cm. Decide how small or big will be ready-made clutch. Divide the rectangle into three equal parts. Mark this in the Portnovo shallow or make the fold lines with any heavy item. Since the upper part will close the clutch, its form must be in the form of a triangle. Find the middle of the top rectangle and draw the lines diverting to the sides. Cut from both ends of triangles.
Stitching face
Now fold the last two triangles to get clutch. Stop along both sides on the sewing machine. Cut extra length if necessary.
Attach the fastener
Then measure the middle of the clutch on the front of the clutch and put the point in this place. Take the sharp sequel and make a small hole in the marked point.
