REDensday Wallet

 Gee! It has been a long time since I last posted here.

I made something RED and thought I would share it for REDnesday!

I am joining Sue over at It's A Very Cherry World!

I was browsing Pinterest and fell in love with this wallet pattern.

I decided I could make it and rummaged in my fabric stash and came up with

this combo for my wallet. 

The pattern/tutorial I followed can be found here.

 One thing I would have done differently is not have the interfacing go all the way to the edge of the fabric.

Would have made pressing and turning easier.

I used Decor Bond from Pellon. Pretty heavy.

 The tutorial said use a 7" zipper, but could use longer.

I had a white 7" zipper on hand. 

After putting  it in, I wished I had used a 9" zipper. 

 I bought these RED Wonder Clips by Clover at Hancock's as a

Mother's Day treat for myself. Worked great while sewing on the wallet!

 My chalk holder is RED too!

 My finished wallet. And I love it!

I added a zipper on the outside as well. Bought a 

9" zipper for this one and it was definitely easier to work 

with the longer zipper and cut it shorter.

Here is the inside. 

There are two long pockets. One on each side.

Six credit card slots.

Two zippers.

And a snap closer. 

Now I plan to make a matching purse!

Hope you all had a wonderful REDnesday!
