• Zig zag one edge of each interior flap section and optional pocket section. (An edge that is the height of the book)
• Fold under 1/2" at the zig zagged edges and stitch in place.
• Align the raw edges of the interior flap and optional pocket, placing both sections right side up. Baste them together.
• Place interior flap section on the body section, right sides together, aligning the raw edges. This flap section should only go to where the nd of the zipper section pivots to meet the body. A bit smaller is fine but if it is too large, trim from the top raw edge to make it fit.
