Sew Spoiled Wallet





Wallet front
Originally uploaded by Sew Spoiled

Not everything I sew is perfect. I completed this while my youngest was sleeping. So I felt rushed because I wanted to finish before my curious 18 month woke up!! Everything was going fine, until I hit the topstitching at the end. Anyway, I love these new prints from Park Slope by Erin McMorris.

PS...I just ordered your versatile bag pattern. The bag with the red 'chrysanthemum' print hooked me!

Yeah I hope you like it!!! They are so much fun to make. If you want to make it a little strudier at the end of the pattern, after the topstitching but before sewing up the lining, cut a few pieces of plastic canvas out for the sides and the bottom of the bag. It will hold the shape even better and last longer in the end. :)
Wow! I love your site! I'm just a beginner though...hopefully someday I can make this cute wallet!

Sweet Coin Purse Tutorial for Teacher Gifts

This time of year is so special to me because I get to show my gratitude for all of the hard work that goes into teaching my daughters. I love to make handmade gifts and this year is no exception. Since money does not grow on trees around here, I looked at my stash (I keep my scraps in hat boxes ) and tried to see what I had a lot of; small zippers, trims, Peltex strips ( from making iPad cases ), fabric scraps and some hardware for key fobs. So I set to work.  Materials: Plastic multipurpose 5" Zipper  Fabric Scraps Lightweight interfacing 808 Pellon Trims (We clipped  key fobs  with 1.5" swivel hooks onto our coin purses . There are tons of tutorials on making key fobs .) Step 1: Print out the Coin Purse Template  PDF.  Cut 2 main fabric, cut 2 lining and 2 interfacing using the template.  Optional: Cut a 2"X2" square of your choice main fabric or lining. This strip of fabric is used to clip a key fob to your coin purse later....
