How to make a tank top tote with six pockets
Supplies and tools
- tank top
- straight pins
- water-erasable fabric marker
- sewing machine and thread
- fabric scissors
- seam ripper
- sewing gauge or ruler
1. First remove the tags with a seam ripper or scissors.
2. Turn the tank top inside out.
3. If your tank top has a bra liner, cut the elastic off the bottom of it.
4. Fold so that the straps lie on top of each other.
5. Fold the bottom of the tank over itself. This will become the pockets.
6. Pin in place, making sure the seams line up. Mark where you want the seams in between each pocket with pins or an erasable fabric marker.
7. Using a stitch that stretches with knit fabric, such as the triple straight stitch, sew the seams that divide each pocket. Make sure the bra liner is lying flat before sewing. Back-stitch to lock the seams.
8. Sew the bottom together about 1/4 inch from the edge. Back-stitch to lock the seam.
