MarkCdub Report post Posted July 28, 2019 Im working on a bifold wallet and Im trying to figure out how wide to make the back so it is wide enough to fold. Its a verticle bifold with 2 card pockets (3 layers on each not including the back). The gap where the pencil is pointed, I currently have it drawn at 1 inch but I think that is too wide.

RockyAussie Report post Posted July 28, 2019 The most common one I make is 1" where you show but that is partly because I like to stitch right across at the bottom. Others that stop and start either side will generally be 3/4" and sometimes a bit less. If they are going to be a bit thick then 1" will be better for sure.

MarkCdub Report post Posted July 28, 2019 (edited) In the drawing its 1". I took my front pocket card holder (same thickness as bifold will be) and wrapped a strip of the leather around to get an idea of how thick it needs to be and it looks like 3/4-1" is about right. I'm gonna leave it at 1" and see how it turns out. Thanks RockyAussie. Edited July 28, 2019 by MarkCdub Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
