First Wallet

So after getting some feedback from several customers, I decided to try my hand at making a wallet. Here is how it came out. I used some light weight materials so I would limit the bulk of the wallet. Once you start putting cards and money in it, it'll get plenty fat on it's own so I tried not to add to that. I used a black and brownish grey leopard print fabric with a simple black cotton lining and black vinyl trim. Using a dollar bill as a reference as well as my own wallet as a base I created a patterns for the main body, money pocket, and card/ID pockets. This wallet has a total of five pockets; one for money/receipts, three for cards, and one clear vinyl ID pocket. The design on the outside of the wallet I created using black vinyl strips which I added silver eyelets to.
