There’s something rewarding about crafting beautiful things that I can use regularly. My favorite wallet makes me happy, and I feel good about having an organized bag; different wallets make it easy to find what I need down at the bottom.
No matter what type of style or closure you want to sew, you’ll find several variations right here.
The Fold and Stitch

The Perfect DIY Wallet
Sew the Perfect DIY Wallet for everything you need. Use vinyl for the phone pocket, or substitute fabric in it’s place.
Pro Tip: You can use vinyl from household packaging instead of purchasing vinyl fabric for an economical/upcycle approach.
Additionally, the pattern includes optional d-ring tabs so a cross body strap can be attached. Or only one d-ring could be used to attach a wrist strap making this a cute wristlet.

Use your best scraps and never leave your business cards at home again. This business card wallet pattern is just the right size.
Cell Phone Wallet
I’m going with major function with the DIY Cell Phone Wallet with Card Pockets. You don’t have to have a back pocket or a purse. Keep your hands free while having your necessities available, with space for a few cards and/or cash too.
