1. Cut and Decorate:
Cut your fleece or felt to 15 inches long by 4 inches wide.
Lay the piece flat and decorate the lower 10 inches, which will become the front and back. Add trims, applique, buttons, or embroidery. Leave the top 5 inches plain for the flap.

2. Create the Pocket:
Fold the bottom 10 inches upward, leaving the top 5 inches as a flap.
Pin and sew the two side edges of the folded portion using a straight stitch or hand stitching.

3. Add the Strap:
Cut 32 inches of cord or ribbon (adjust based on how long you want it to hang).
Hand stitch or securely sew one end of the cord to each top corner of the holder.

4. Secure the Flap:
Cut a small slit in the top flap for the buttonhole.
Sew a button onto the front side of the pocket underneath the flap to match up with the slit.

Final Holder Size:
Approx. 6.5 inches tall by 4 inches wide (fits most phones with slim or moderate cases)
