Draft and cut out pattern on paper 20cm x 6cm.( used paper. DO NOT cut with your FABRIC Scissor! big no-no)
Trace and cut 2 pc flannel fabric for outer layer. You can see that i cut pre-hole seam, for the later step.
Cut 2 pc (or more) rectangle fabby 20cm x 6cm for the absorbent material/ inside soaker.
from left- paper pattern, 2 pc flanel fabby for outer layer, 2 pc white flannel for inside soaker 

Place the cut fabby on top of each other in this arrangement

Pin them up together..dont move!


Sew along your tracing line,or if you prefer, follow your seam allowance. Start from the pre-hole line.
Start from the pre-hole abd stich all the way... leave the pre-hole open

Trim excess fabby.

Behold, the pre-hole! Turn inside out.

Tip - Seam Guide

Assalam,

It's been a while since last i update this blog. A few weeks ago,i was asking around about the perfect seam on a group in FB and a friend said that they found about this method,cheap n it works. Ok,simple tips n trick to have an adjustable seam guide.

Get yourself a strip magnet used on white board or fridge. Just place the strip magnet on the bed of your machine, according to the size you desire. If you are using a portable,  usually the whole body is made out of plastic,so there is a small piece of steel area where you can place it. You can put it on left or right side, whichever suits your sewing style. Happy Sewing!
