Step 1: Getting Everything Ready

What you need:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-Yourself
-Needles
-Threads
-Scissors
-Felt fabric
-Buttons
-Zipper
-A Soft piece of fabric "for the inside of the pouch"

Note: Draw a sketch of what your making so you can look at it from time to time to remember what exactly your doing

Step 2: Sewing the Puppy

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Cut the felt to pieces you'll use in sewing your puppy
I didn't really put any sizes to use as reference to cut on

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
but here is something that might help u !
Ears : 2.5 cm
Red pocket Hight : 4.5 cm
Red pocket Width : 7 cm
Black felt Hight : 20 cm
Black felt Width : 12 cm

Step 3: Sewing the Puppy [Cont]

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The black ears were sewed into the puppys head with a black string
thats why it does not show.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The black felt piece is 10cm when its folded .
Sew the red pocket into the black felt but before ur done , place the button in the middle and sew it
make sure its in the right place
not up to high nor down
try to keep checking on the puppy's head place and the button place

Step 4: The Inside of the Pouch!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Bring a different piece of fabric that isn't felt fabric so it;ll be soft
you can use a piece of old clothes.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Attaching it:
I sewed the outside lines "red while holding the inside gray fabric so the red string would attach it while im making the outside lining

Step 5: Last Step! Adding the Zipper

adding the zipper is an impotent step !!

1st Photo:

first you'd have to sew it to the felt really tight so it wont open in the future
so id advice u to sew it 2 times!
I used a black string to attach the zipper so the lines wont show on the felt from the outside since i sewed the lining red
wouldn't want to kill the design xP

2nd Photo:

When your done sewing the 2 zipper sides , test if they will open and close for u in a right way
cause you could have sewed it wrong , 2cm for zipper being far from each other could effect the opening and closing of the pouch
was really my first time sewing a zipper into something! so ya good luck and dont be scared :)

Close the zipper ends b4 cutting them
Sew on them with a black string oveer an over again till you feel there is no way the zip would go out
then its ok to cut the ends

4th Photo:
~
When your done with the zipper
Sew the left and right side of the pouch from the inside
closing it with a black string!
if there is small ends of the zipper left do sew them from the inside
If you didn't and u flipped the pouch it;ll pop out so better sew them to get a better result
