ASSEMBLE THE POUCH
Supplies needed to assemble the pouch:
Fabric, fabric glue, decorative button, sewing needle and thread.
Cut fabric to fit inside the granny square. You want the last round of your granny square to be visible. Glue the fabric to the wrong side of the granny square. Sew the button to the right side of the granny square, in any corner.
To close the pouch, button the three free corners onto the decorative button.
