Necessity really must be the mother of invention because I had to create this little wallet for myself the other day. My old one, bless it's heart, was falling to pieces and despite fruitless searching for a replacement I decided to make my own from my stash. Using the old wallet as a pattern ( I really did love it) I cut some fabric from an old sheet, installed my first zipper in years (thank you Sew Mama Sew easy zipper tutorial!) , pinned on a sparkly paste brooch and voila, brand new pretty pocketbook.The old one.. sniff sniff
The new one.. so pretty!

ReplyDeleteI love it! It's possibly the loveliest pocketbook I've ever seen. Now I want one just like it. Especially the little zippered pocket for change. Mine closes with an inadequate snap, which causes frequent coin spillages. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteAnyway...fantastic job!

ReplyDeleteThe old one had pretty asian (korean?) ladies all gathered around the village well.
