Description

Attention: This is a kit. It is NOT a finished pouch. You need to make the pouch by yourself.

- One kit allows you to make ONE wallet. You just need to choose the color combination (indigo ground+beige thread or beige ground+red thread). Both printed patterns are included in the kit and are demonstrated in my video tutorial. You can decide later which pattern to make.

- When you buy the kit, I will send you a private link to watch my video tutorial in ENGLISH (70 minutes). This is not a fancy video. But I do share my sewing techniques and tips from my 8 years experiences. I am not a native English speaker. So please allow some of my mistakes. Thank you :-)

- What I listed in the photo "Nice to have" can help you to accelerate the making process. I demonstrated with and without Sashiko thimble when stitching and with sewing machine when assembling. If you do not have them, you can still make the pouch.

TECHNIQUE & DIFFICULTY LEVEL:
- Sashiko embroidery: Persimmon flower pattern is more beginner friendly than the cross pattern. If you are new to Sashiko, I would recommend persimmon flower pattern.
- Assembling: This shape is a classical wallet shape. What makes it special is that there are no visible sewing traces on the finished wallet. About 60%-70% of assembling has to be sewn by hand. I will show you step by step how to do that and share my tips of how to install the zipper and the lining perfectly. It might be a little challenging for those who don't sew by hand. But don't be afraid. My tutorial recorded every detail how I made them.
- Once you know how to make this wallet, you can create your own shell-shape wallet according to the size you need.
- Measurements are given in cm and inch
