Step 1: Cut a 5 x 12-inch rectangle out of a piece of felt.
Step 2: Fold up the long end of the strip about 2/3 of the way.
Step 3: Staple or glue the edges together to form a pocket.
Step 4: If you'd like, you can make two parallel slits in the back of the pouch so you can thread your belt through the slits.
