Q&A
Question:
Hello, well I understood almost all the tutorial except the flap, I did not understand why the second panel of the flap measures 28x29cm and I do not know where it goes, I could deduce that the length of the flap should be folded in half, but I still do not understand where to place the second panel of the flap, if anyone knows please tell me it would be very helpful.
Answer:
I believe the flap is made of just one piece of fabric 30 x 59 cm. When sides are sewed and the piece is turned inside-out, then the flap is folded, resulting in a flap of 28x29cm.
