Mini Bi-Fold Wallet sewing pattern
Who doesn’t need a great small wallet to carry extra credit cards or business cards in!
This small bi-fold wallet is just that. The center section on the exterior is a perfect place to add your braiding techniques or any unique design that you wish to showcase. The flip lock frame at the top secures everything in place, and if you happen to place too many cards in the wallet, then just flip the lock up instead of down for that added security.
The interior features two credit card slots with a pocket behind on one side and a clear ID pocket on the opposite side with a trimmed edge making it easy to insert and remove those important cards.
What a perfect wallet for that grab and go item!
