Pattern - Lewis Wallet by Spencer-Ogg |
Mini Wallets
I spotted this pattern ages ago and "filed it under L for Later".
The other week my son came down stairs wearing a favourite T-shirt & pointing to two large tears in it said "I think I'm going to have to say goodbye to this" & took it off. I decided I was going to put it to use and make him a face covering when I remembered the Lewis Wallet pattern and decided to make him one of those instead so teamed it up with some Cordura as an outer. To be honest, it really wasn't one of my best efforts as the interfacing I used to stabilise the t-shirt fabric made for bulky seams and a wavy finish to the inside but he's happy with it & when I said I'd make another was told "Dinnae be daft".
I also realised I hadn't made any "gizzits" for the SAM Veterans group recently and had been pondering what to make for them so once I worked out what was causing the wobbly insides (bulky seams) it was time to have a go at a few different ones.

I've added a set of press stud dies to my "Green Machine" collection - I think the 15mm brass studs on the waxed cotton wallet look rather nice.
