First Wallet

Recommended Posts

Being very new to leather work this is my second project. I started this by buying a wallet kit from Tandy, the problem was it looked like a kit and I did not think I would learn much so I built one from scratch. There a lots of flaws and I learned a lot. Constructive criticism is apriciated.

I don't know if it's the picture or not, but it looks like the name kind of blends in too well with the basket weave in place? Maybe leave a little bit of room between next time, or add a border perhaps? Aside from that, it looks like a wallet!! As long as it holds everything in, I'd say you did a great job! I like how you did the pockets. Does that make it bulky?

I would of been tempted to use black thread, also invest in an overstitch wheel or a pricking iron to make the stitching neater. But really good work, if you saw my second project you would have a giggle :)
