A small calf leather wallet machine stitched with waxed cotton thread with raw edges.

Hand stiched on stars are from swarovski elements.

Inspiration: Needed a new purse and really like what the stars and moon trends.

Why I made it: Had some leftover navy calf leather to work with and came out with a simple drawing with positions of where all the slots are positioned before measuring, cutting and assembly.

Step 1: Measuring and Prep

Measure a dollar note and some cards that you intend to put in the wallet. ( or use the measurements provided in my diagram )

Map out how the dollar note and cards will be placed on a piece of A4 paper and add seam allowance of 5 to 7mm or any allowance you are comfortable working with. Extras can be trimmed at the end of project.

Step 2: Position Pins

Firstly, place panel C on a flat surface and fold it in half.

Use a hammer and flatten folded area to reduce bulk.
Once satisfied with fold, place panels A and B onto your desired layout or per diagram and pin with large paperclips to position all the pieces in place.
