Tall Wallet sewing pattern with video
This great designer has made a space for everything in her smart wallet, that is designed for cork, leather or vinyl. Now is your chance to learn new techniques and try new materials.
You may have read about cork and how wonderful it is for sewing bags and wallets. Cork fabric is very different from cork used in coasters and even the flimsy cork on a roll you can buy for arts and crafts. Cork fabric is a delight to sew with, soft and supple, hardwearing and non-fraying. If you’ve not tried it already – give it a go! FIND CORK FABRIC HERE or HERE.
