How to make trifold wallet video tutorial

 

Classic Trifold Wallet Pattern

Hello, 

I hope you're all doing well! I've been pretty busy in the past few weeks, especially with the holy month of Ramadan going on. But I am happy to finally put up a video tutorial for the Classic Trifold Wallet. Actually, I've been working on it for a couple of weeks. Whiles sewing and taking videos don't take much time, editing really needs a good mood and of course a lot of screen time. 



I made the pattern when I just started out, and after getting a lot of feedback, I decided it was time to revise the pattern. While there are no drastic changes in the pattern, this time, it is written in a better way and also uses real photos and also diagrams to help understand the process better. And also I hope with the video, people can have a better understanding. 

The changes I made with the pattern are only on the construction of the interior zipper pocket and also added better templates for the card slot construction.  You can watch it in the video below: 




Wallet features:

- Sturdy construction that makes the wallet last longer
- 12 and 16 cards variant
- Spacious to carry cards, a smartphone, a passport, etc
- Binding to hold the wallet together and also give a unique handmade look. 
- Various supporting video tutorials


The lavender wallet below I made using printed linen and combined it with shot cotton fabric. It turned out very crisp and chic!

Kodomo Kids Wallet Video Tutorial

Kodomo Wallet


Hello,

Today I want to share the new beginner's friendly wallet pattern, KODOMO WALLET, that I recently released on my Webshop as well as in my Etsy shop. Kodomo means child in Japanese and this is what exactly the wallet is about. A simple and functional wallet that is perfect for kids as well as adults.

I have been making this kodomo wallet in my handmade shops and it is popular with my customers. They love the simplicity and functionality of the design, and also the fun print choice we can use. 

If you are a beginner or novice sewist in wallet making, this might be the perfect pattern for you.

The materials needed to make this pattern:
3 Fat eighth (9” x 22”) quilting weight fabrics for exterior, interior, and card slots
1 Fat eighth  lightweight  fusible non-woven interfacing for card slots
 1 – 0.75” diameter cute button
 5” long 1/4” wide elastic
 #3  all purposes zipper – 9” or longer


And of course, video tutorial is also available on my YouTube channel for those of you who are more visual learners. 




I made a couple of wallets for the shop using this kids' print fabric that I have in my stash.  These Alice in Wonderland Wallets are really cute and are popular with my customers.
