Back To Basics - Card Wallets, Card Sleeve

[thefanninator]

Probably the thing a beginner should be making when learning to stitch. You can't go wrong with a Vergez • Blanchard pricking iron.

A couple of Horween card wallets and a card sleeve. The black is Essex and it smells great! Tan is Orion. Lin Cable thread @ 9 spi. Fenice edge paint from Tandy.

Nice work, Fanninator!

Thanks! I'm sure everyone who's made dozens of them are sick of them. Ha ha!

You should list those for sale over there. Guy makin' a mint selling some not nearly as good lookin as yours!

Those look great! 9 spi looks really good on that size. I was just looking at Blanchard pricking irons and shuddering at the price. Sometime soon, maybe. Ludlow carries .6mm thread, is that still too big for 9spi, do you think?

Thanks JLSleather & Monica!
