How to Make a DIY Fabric Cup Holder

Step 1:

Draw the pattern. Get a piece of paper and your bottle or cup. Wrap the paper around your bottle or cap. Trim the excess. Get an object and use it as a ledge. Take a pen and place it on top of the ledge. Rotate the cup while holding the pen to draw a circle. Make the ledge higher, then repeat. Cut the pattern.

Step 2:

Cut the pattern from your interfacing, inner fabric, and outer fabric. The size depends on your cup or bottle. Next, cut a 14 inches x 2 inches strip from your outer fabric.

Step 3:

Place the outer shape on top of the interfacing and press with an iron. Set aside.

Step 4:

Get the strip and fold the long sides toward the center. Stitch on both edges.

Step 5:

Fold the unit from step 3 in half, then fold it again, leaving 0.4 inches. Trim a little bit of the corner. Sew the ends of the sewn strip on the crease lines.

Step 6:

Place the inner shape on top and trim it the same way as you did with step 5. Pin it on the right side of the unit. Sew on the bottom, then press the seams open. Sew the ends together, then press the seams open.

Step 7:

Fold one side of the top part towards the center and one side of the bottom part towards the center. Next, press the other sides together. Sew together, leaving a small opening. Flip it right side out. Top stitch on the outer edges.
