Once upon a time, right as the world turned upside down because of Covid19, I was scheduled to attend a guild retreat and our group project was to make a cork wallet. Retreat was cancelled and finally a bunch of us gathered last Sunday via Zoom to make our wallets.
The pattern is the Lucky Penny Wallet from Sallie Tomato. It is a great pattern and we all finished out wallets in 2 hours thanks to our awesome instructor Sara.
I am very happy I choose the blue zipper for a bit of color pop plus very, very, very happy I went with a coordinating thread color so my top stitching bobbles are hard to find even if you know where to look. I had a leftover cork scrap from the bag I made my sister (see it here) which brought a fun accent to the inside and outside of the wallet.
Now I've got my wallet filled with my cash and my cards. If only I had somewhere to go!
Have a wonderful day! Patty
The zipper is a lovely pop of color and I like the subtle variation in the two cork types. That's awesome that it came together in 2 hours!
ReplyDeleteWell done. It looks great.
ReplyDeleteSuch a great wallet. I am itching to play with my cork! Maybe I will give myself permission soon.
ReplyDeleteFantastic job! It's hard to believe that if was made it 2 hours flat! Those will make great gifts.
