4. You will need a flap that folds down so that when the case is folded the picks will not fall out
of the top.
5. Now we are ready to sew the edging to neaten the case up.
( for leather this is not needed )
Grab your "seat belt material" and fold it in half over the edges and pin it there. sew along the
inner edges of it.
if you cut this material use a gas torch or a stove to melt the edges so if something catches it
the material won't come apart.
