I am sure every girl or woman needs a little emergency wallet like this; the more you have prepared, the more convenient life can be in any situation.
To make this discreet women’s wallet, you need:
• any fabric for the outer side;
• lining fabric;
• fleece for padding;
• hook-and-loop tape;
• thread, in any color you like;
• elastic.
Cut the outer fabric, lining, and fleece into 25 × 12 cm rectangles. Adjust the size according to what the wallet will hold. Layer them like a sandwich: outer fabric, fleece, lining.
Quilt the “sandwich” in any pattern you like. Here it is quilted in squares.
Round the corners on one side and make a semicircle on the other.
Cut small 3–4 cm pieces of hook-and-loop tape. Sew them to the end of the wallet with the short raw edges.
Like every wallet, this one needs an inner pocket. Cut a piece of fabric 2 times as narrow and shorter as the wallet. Turn under the pocket’s upper edge. Finish the other three edges with a neat stitch, preferably zigzag. Before sewing the inner pocket edge, place the edge of the elastic underneath it. The elastic length is easy to determine: from the hook-and-loop tape edge to the pocket. Remember to sew the elastic without stretching it. Make rounded corners as on the wallet itself. Divide the elastic into several equal sections with stitching.
Finish the wallet edges with bias tape, and your handy wallet is ready to use.
