I'm still knitting dishcloths and really needed a little break. I wanted to sew something... I found this wonderful
tutorial for a mini wallet ~ just what I've been needing for some time. Instead of fumbling with my present wallet, where cards, bills, and change are each in a different section, this little pouch will hold all three.
I have had this
hedgehog fabric (from
Superbuzzy) for almost a year and decided to put it to some good use. There is a thin layer of cotton batting, a red and white polka dot lining, and a little snap closure...
It was super quick and easy to sew up! I know I'll be making some more of these soon.

Great use of that adorable hedgehog fabric. I love a grab'n go wallet like this one. Way easier to find what I need, when I need it.
ReplyDeleteI love it! Especially the red/white polka dots.
ReplyDeleteJody

ReplyDeleteHi there- I'm new to your site, but sew from home. Do you mind sharing where you purchase your "firefly farm" labels? I want to name my little sewing business and have labels made. Thank you!

We love it! What a great job and cute fabric!

Your wallet came out wonderful (I love the hedgehog fabric too!). I'm glad the pattern worked out for you :)
ReplyDeleteI am in love with that wallet--especially the fabric! Thank you for the link to the tutorial...I'm looking forward to making my own.
ReplyDeleteDeb I've been out of the loop for a while but just wanted to say that your blog is as lovely and inspiring as always. I love those little hedgehogs!
ReplyDeleteHi, I wish I could sew !! (Or more to the point, I wish I enjoyed sewing). Great purse !
ReplyDeleteIt's gorgeous, love the choice of fabrics.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful wallet, you did a great job on it. Thankyou for the link, looks like you just found me the perfect Christmas gifts for the many young girls in my life.
ReplyDeleteHi Rachel!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your kind words, and patience! I know I must sound idiotic, but when I went to find the catalog, from which I ordered my Firefly Farm labels, I couldn’t locate it. It had been quite some time since I’ve ordered them, and I was not even sure which sewing supply catalog to look for! Anyway, today I found it buried in a basket of other catalogs, and I hope it is not too late to be of some help.
The company’s name is Newark Dressmaker Supply, Inc., and they also have a website at newarkdress.com. I ordered the 5/16 inch single line tape – sew-in, which is found at this link: http://www.newarkdress.com/NameTapes.html
Rachel, I’m really sorry I didn’t get this to you sooner. Best wishes for success with your sewing business!
Deb
Thanks for sharing, exactly what I was looking to make, you do such nice work. And, I love the superbuzzy fabric, went to the website, it is soooo nice.
