Zip Around Family Passport Wallet


Family Passport Holder | Pdf Pattern

Hello,

I hope everyone is well and getting ready to enjoy summer. The weather is getting more humid in this part of India too but looks like summer will not be much different than last year. We're still in lockdown until next week and most probably it will be extended for a couple more weeks. 

A few weeks ago I finished a couple of family passport holders with a zipper around closure. They were custom orders from my Etsy Shop. How I wish we could start traveling again.

I particularly love this leopard print wallet and I'm glad the customer loved it too. 

Love my custom passport wallet! It turned out perfect and made so well! Fast shipping and great communication! 


As usual, I always make an extra wallet when I'm working on an order, that way I can add more ready-to-ship items to the shop. This trick works for me so far. For the second one, I did a recording for a video tutorial on my Youtube Channel. It's been long due. I plan to edit and upload it by next week.

Zip Around Passport Wallet





This time, I did the zipper using a single tape zipper (which currently my fave) like I did for this small wallet in my previous post. Check the video below on how to sew single zipper tape on a wallet. 


On a personal front, I got my first shot of Covishield vaccine last Sunday and was feeling rather unwell for a couple of days. I felt feverish at night the day I took the jab and the next day, after that, I felt better after a couple doses of paracetamol. I hope you have taken yours too! I pray that more and more people can get vaccinated here in India. At this point in time, I'll just go with the flow. Take a day at a time. I was talking to my friend the other day about, how at the end of 2019 we were so full of plans and suddenly 2020 happened.

Well, let's do what we can for now. Until next time, take care and stay safe!

Video Tutorial - How to Sew Zip Around Fabric Wallet

Watch on Youtube



Finally, I finished editing the video tutorial for Nuno Small Bifold Wallet and upload it on Youtube. Pheew, that's one big list I can tick off my list this week. I hope it helps you to visualize when you decide to make the wallet.

I made the zip-around version of the wallet in the video and I also included how to add 2 in 1 exterior zipper pocket

This Nuno wallet is pretty quick to sew. It takes longer to choose the fabric combo than actually sewing it:). This time, I learn to add a timestamp to the video description, so that you can just click the link and go to the part that you want to know more in detail. 



The zipper closure is only using single zipper tape. You can use this zipper closure technique for any wallet. This is my fave zipper closure method now. Do let me know if you want a picture tutorial for this method. 






I also made this Wonderland Nuno Wallet with Exterior Zipper for a customer on Etsy. She wanted 2 card slot sets inside and a zipper pocket on the outside.  When I showed her the 2 in 1 pocket, she readily agreed.
