Tutorial: DIY fabric wallet

Teresa from Dandelion Drift shares a tutorial at Sew, Mama, Sew showing how you can make a fabric wallet for yourself, or perhaps a friend. Inside the wallet are smaller pockets that hold credit cards, larger pockets for paper money or checkbooks, and a zippered pocket to hold change and other small items. You can mix and match the prints like she did, using the new Arizona collection by April Rhodes, with the different pockets and pieces made from different fabrics.
