An Easy Wallet





I made this wallet for a friend for her birthday. I didn't really use a pattern. I based it off of this tutorial, but I did it my own way and I didn't bother printing off the pattern template. Combining felt and fabric is so fun and makes for less confusing sewing! Felt doesn't have to be hemmed, so you can fold and press fabric and top stitch it to felt and make things pretty easily without patterns or thinking too hard! Pretty nice for a beginner sewer like me!

Thanks so much for sharing this! We're doing the Dave Ramsey envelope system and I wanted a fun wallet to put them in!
Is that sweet baby starting to kick yet?
