BELT LOOPS
Fold the long edges of the strips from both sides so that the edges meet in the center. Then fold the strip again lengthwise and press; the wrong sides are facing. Stitch the edges narrowly. Cut the strip into two equally long pieces. Neaten the ends and turn inside (a). Stitch the loops as marked onto the side seams (b).
BELT
Position the pieces together, right sides facing. Stitch the center back seam. Press allowances apart.
Fold the belt lengthwise, right sides facing. Stitch the edges together, thereby leaving an opening to allow access for the purpose of turning it inside out (arrows). Secure seam ends. Trim allowances, cut the corners at an angle. Turn the belt inside out. Pin the edges, press and topstitch narrowly, thereby stitching the open seam part ©.
