Sewing Project - Fold Over Wallets

I used my new collage fabric to make 3 more foldover wallets today.

The first one I did not pay attention too much to where my folds would be.  The next couple I did audition which would be the front and the back.  I had a bit of leeway as the piece of fabric needed to be trimmed back some.

I put a red elastic on this one.





The new collage fabric allowed me to make 3 wallets with none of them being exactly the same.

I chose to put a black elastic on this one because of the little black bees on the fabric on the right hand side.












This one has the light fabric on the left hand side which is quite a contrast.  I think it works though.

Again, a red elastic for this one.















I chose to use clips to hold the sandwich together when sewing these wallets.

The silver fabric you see if the RFID fabric and I think it is best if there are not holes in the fabric where the cards will be.  

The fabric is incorporated into the 2 side seams then the fold over flaps are aligned with the edge of the fabric so that the full outside of the pockets are protected.
