Tutorial: Make a simple fabric wallet

Caila from Caila Made shares a tutorial at Sew in Love, the blog for Benartex fabrics, showing how you can make a simple fabric wallet. The one she made is a back-to-school gift for her son. Inside the wallet are card-sized pockets and also a long pocket at the back that holds folded money. There are no complicated closures to sew. She used their Burlap fabrics, which are actually quilting cottons printed to look like burlap. That’s a good choice for a boy’s wallet, but this simple design would look good out of any style of print.
