Step 12 LOOPS / BELT

Step12_large

LOOPS

Fold the strip so that the edges meet the center line. Press. Fold again in half, wrong sides facing. Press. Topstitch long edges narrowly. Cut the strip into two pieces and neaten strip ends. (a)

BELT

Fold the belt lengthwise, right sides facing. Pin edges and stitch. Trim allowances and cut the corners at a slant. (b) Turn belt. Pin edges, press and topstitch narrowly. Neaten ends.

Work a hole into the belt, around 3” (7 cm) from the open belt end. Neaten. You could use a rivet to neaten the hole. Attach this end of the belt to a buckle. Wrap the belt end around the bar of the buckle (the belt prong goes through the hole just made) and stitch. Apply eyelets to the angled belt end. ©
