Minimalist Wallet

My eyes are always drawn to patterns by Anna Graham.  A while back I purchased her pattern for the Minimalist Wallet and have now made both the small and large size.  The small size was my first attempt, and I learned a few things along the way... 

* If using Duck Cloth fabric  for the outside, use a cotton on the pocket.  It will help to reduce bulk and make for smoother corners.

 *When installing a snap, follow the directions carefully.  A snap that does not work is frustrating!

* The metal zipper on this small size seems a bit bulky for my preference. 

The best thing about this little wallet, in my opinion, is the leather flap.  I love using a bit of leather.

Fabric choices:  Both fabrics (duck cloth and linen) are from my stash.  

Enter the larger size ...

Fabrics:  Duck Cloth and cotton from Hobby Lobby.

 This one makes me smile!  It's the right size -- can hold cards, money, and a phone -- AND the snaps work!!

Adding hardware is a "snap" if you follow directions carefully.
