Passport Card Sleeve Pattern - Testers Photos Part 3



Hello,
Passport Card Sleeve Pattern

I really love how the above black and white passport cover turned out. While making the pattern, I always did a few to make sure that everything was OK before I sent the pattern to the testers. Even with all the sewing, there's always something that I missed. Hence the pattern testing stage is very important, even for a basic simple pattern.

The ladies who helped me with this pattern were simply awesome and also I want to thank Namrata of Bagstock who helped me proofreading every single draft. A big thank you once again to everyone (group hugs!!!).

Now, let's jump in to see the last part of the tester photos! Some of the testers made a couple of Passport sleeve. You can also check their photos in my Pinterest.


As usual, don't forget to click the link to see more of their works!

Alternative Card slot on Matryoshka Travel Wallet

Hello,

It's June already and I'm always looking forward for my summer break to Indonesia!
Did I mention that I am working on the pattern of this passport cover? It's now on the testing stage and I'm so grateful for my amazing testers who not only they're giving me their honest feedbacks and suggestions, but also they're also working hard making beautiful wallets,which I am sure will make you inspired!! I will be sharing their posts once the pattern is released next week! so stay tuned or subscribe to my blog so you won't miss the date!

In the meantime, I finished this matryoshka travel wallet. 


I tried a different flap this time and happy with the result. I also tried using a different combination for the card slot. If you already purchase the pattern, here what you can do: 

From the main card slot pattern, reduce the height (or the length) by 3". Then cut an exterior or contrast fabric 8"W x 4" H and sew it to the main Card slot panel with 1/4" seam allowance.

Once they are sewn together, mark the lines from the bottom to the top referring to the diagram given on the pattern. The first mark line should be on the stitching line (see diagram  above). 
Once done, continues as per the pattern's instructions and here how it will look like!

Small Passport and Card Holder

Hello,

Just a quick post. I've been busy writing the instructions for my next wallet pattern and able to finish these 3 wallets in 2 days! That was a record. What's the secret? Uninstall Facebook app from my phone! Yes, that is the secret! I found I spent too much time just browsing, most of the time aimlessly, on Facebook and less sewing. The "just 5 minutes" can stretch to 2 hours or more. I feel I need to be more focus on getting works done then just admiring other people works!

Anyway, the pattern is coming along very nicely, thank you for my dear friends who came forward to ask about my next pattern. I feel so blessed. Sometimes, I think it's a way of God to nudge me, to remind me that I have more important things to do then just snooping around on Facebook LOL. I do need that big nudge. So thank you once again! #hugs (you know who you are)!

So here are my wallets, now they are available on ETSY and CHEZVIES WEBSITE.

I have quite a few cute cats print fabrics and I took out two of them. First one is this blue cat wallet. Arent's they cute? I really love the black and white chevron too. The chevron I got from  Indonesia last year.

The wallet is pretty quick to make and it's fun to make. I think that's the fabric effect. Ha! 

Passport Holder


 The next one is this orange cat Wallet. My fave! Look at those naughty smiles.

I even hesitated for a while before installing the metal tag. Just didn't want to cover the smiles with my tag. 


I also made this retro type black and white wallet with bright pink and red combo. It's just perfect for those who love a little splash in life.

And I felt so happy when I found the flap matched perfectly. Well, life is full of surprises. Sometimes, even the best plan doesn't work out!

Happy Sewing,
