Wallet Project

As you can probably imagine I have a lot of free time on my hands when we are not out and about so I decided to buy a sewing machine.  I love sewing and I love fabric.  I was missing my sewing machine back home so I thought getting one would be a good way to pass the time.

Me and my sewing machine!

I had a hard time finding fabric.  There are fabric stores here, but the selection isn’t that great, but I discovered the clothing stores have a great selection of already cut fabric.  The catch is that you have to buy the whole package which is about 8 meters all together.  The package consists of 2 meters for the pants, 2 meters for the top, and a 2 meter scarf. There are usually two different fabrics that match in some way.  The price is only $10.00.  Great deal!

I found this great wallet tutorial online at Confessions of a Fabricaholic and I had to try and make it.  So here is my second project:
