I’m excited to share my latest free sewing pattern with you—the Flexi coin pouch! This fun, beginner-friendly project is perfect for using up those fabric scraps you’ve saved. Whether you need a quick gift idea or just want to add something cute and practical to your collection, this little pouch is a must-make.
The Flexi coin pouch is compact and has a flex frame closure, making it easy to open and close. It features a small flap with a press snap, a fully lined main compartment, and because a little extra storage never hurts, there’s also a handy back pocket—perfect for storing folded notes or bank cards.
Its compact size makes it perfect for slipping into your bag or back pocket. You can use it as a wallet, a pouch for earbuds, or even a little case for jewellery or a mini emergency kit! Whatever you need to keep tidy on the go, this pouch has you covered!

Make It Your Own
There are so many ways to customise your Flexi Coin Pouch! You can experiment with closures—try a decorative button, a small press lock, or swap the snap fastener for something else you love. If you’re into embroidery, why not add a cute design or initials on the front to give it a personal touch?
You can also play around with fabrics—mix and match different textures and prints or add some leather accents for a more luxurious feel. For a little extra flair, you could sew on a cute label or attach a metal tag to give your pouch a professional, polished look.
And if you want to make it even more functional, you could attach a small connector to hook it onto your bag or belt loop, making it easy to carry wherever you go.
