As you all know the men and boys in our lives seem to miss out a little when it comes to homemade things. Well my little man seems to anyway. After really looking at my fabric I found some star wars and pokemon fabric so I made these wallets. Its called a
Gentleman's Wallet by Mrs H.
I love the way these have turned out. So, again, I went on the hunt and found some fat quarters (FQ) Star wars fabric. But fitting the pattern on the FQ was proving to be a bit of a task. So I ended up cutting a paper pattern to see how everything was going to fit.
So this is how it ended up.
From the right (yes I know it backwards but thats the way my brain works being a lefty) I cut 4 1/2 " to cover the right card slots and the top of the id pocket. The next one is also 4 1/2" to cover the right card slot and the front of the front divider. and finally 10" to cover the back and the note hold in the middle. It works well because then I just modify a couple of pieces to the size I need.
There are still the backing of the id pocket, behind the card slots, and the backing of the front panel. These I have done in plain black being Star wars and all.
I managed to get an extra 3 wallets. So of to sew I go.
Happy Crafting
Tabatha.
