NOTIONS required include (depending on your option choice):
- Zipper: 16cm (6 1/2") length of No.3 coil zipper tape. In order to get the full opening length, the use of a length of nylon coil zipper that you can sew over is suggested. A no.3 size tape is recommended but a no.5 can be used.
- Cord: approximately 30cm (12") of cord to secure a key inside the elasticated pocket, and OPTIONALLY a further 18cm (7") for either a bottom loop or a zipper loop. The key loop can be made using 30cm (12") of 2mm cotton cord, some elasticated cord, leather string, narrow cotton herringbone tape. The final finished lengths of cord will be shorter, but it is much easier to handle with some excess cord length.
- Elastic: approximately 25cm (10") of 0.5cm (1/4") elastic. To secure the elasticated opening. The final finished lengths of elastic will be shorter, but it is much easier to handle with some excess elastic length.
- Snap Fixing: a 12mm anorak style snap fixing. If including the external slip pocket, you will need one snap fixing to secure it.
- Other Optional Hardware Items: D-Ring: A small d-ring (12mm to a max width of 25mm) to optionally add to a zipper tab at the base. Swivel Hook: A small swivel hook (12mm to a max width of 25mm) to optionally add to a zipper tab or zipper loop at the base. Key Ring: A key ring to add to the internal key loop so that more than one key can be secured.
- Interfacing: The MilestonePOUCH can be made without overall interfacing, however, depending on the fabric you use and the level or structure that you desire, you may wish to interface some areas. The pattern tutorial contains suggestions on suitable fabrics and on areas where you may want to consider adding interfacing.
