Sample Sale - Spring Bouquet Card Wallet (sold)

The next Sample Sale item is a little Card Wallet. You can make one of these yourself with the Card Wallets pattern. I just used a snap instead of the strap.

Lots of people ask about these snaps and they are size 24 snaps but these particular ones are no longer available. They are metal snaps and came from a company called Snap Source which is no longer in business. But you can search for the packages of snaps and sometimes they'll turn up on etsy or elsewhere.  

The floral fabric used here is called Spring Bouquet and it's always been one of my favorite small scale florals.  It's OOP and no longer available but of course, you can always look to see if you can find it. 

The lining for this wallet is a striped cotton fabric from Robert Kaufman. It's also OOP but I think there might be a cotton stretch (poly) version of this out now.  

Making Coin Purses

Here's something I whipped up this morning--a tiny coin purse.  If I hadn't been attempting to multi-task, this would have taken maybe 30-minutes to complete. These are just about as close to instant gratification sewing as you can get!

I make these using the Size 1 Card Wallet pattern pieces printed at 85%. 

If you're printing out your pattern pieces at different sizes, don't forget to mark them!  You don't want to get the different sizes mixed up or you might be in for an unpleasant surprise later when you cut mismatched fabric pieces.
