This method is just like sewing a strap. Take your belt loop piece and fold it in half lengthwise, right sides together. Sew along the long edge with a ¼” (6mm) seam allowance or use the seam allowance your pattern specifies. Trim seam allowances to ¼” (6mm) if using a wider seam allowance.

Turn right side out and press, positioning the seam in the center so it will be hidden on the underside of the belt loop. Topstitch edges if desired. You don’t have to topstitch this type of loop, which makes this option suitable for dressy garments that have no topstitching anywhere else. Cut the length into pieces and attach them to your garment.
