New Wallet

I've been wanting a new wallet forever but I've been unable to find one that is both striking in looks and functionality. I also haven't had the cash flow to spend a lot of money on a wallet. (While I've wanted a wallet, there is hardly any cash inside. Ironic, I know) Anyway, I decided that I could probably design an sew a wallet that lived up to my expectations. Below is what I came up with it. I am mostly very satisfied with it, although I would have added a little stiffer interfacing to the whole project, and probably changed the opening where I turned the wallet right side out. It stretched a little when I did that and caused a pucker when I sewed it up, which was disappointing to me.

    cute! I want to make that, you'll have to make sure you write down your steps & corrections so you (me :) can duplicate it.

    Katie, I wrote down what I cut out, but not the steps. I will help you make one. Yes, Lorie, you can hire me to make one. We just need to do it before this baby comes and I don't have time to sew anymore.

    When does your etsy store open? Or can I come for the lesson?

    Yes, you could come for the lesson, and I'm trying to get things together for an Etsy store.
