- I needed to to draw ✍️ the pattern at the back (on the gumstay of the flap and pocket )
In making this design, we will need a phonix thread (embroidery thread) . I rolled thread in like 12 places to make it thick, and i reeled into reeler and put into the bobbing and passed into the machine to serve as under thread 🧵.
