      Have it all wallet
    Reviewed by Janet ( Verified Buyer) on 12/08/2023
    I have made 2 of these wallets. The pattern was easy to follow, and the wallet fairly quick to make (especially the second time). Plenty of space, and I especially like having the zippered pocket. I also like that my cards don’t fall out when I open it. If I make it again, I think I would use a magnetic snap and put a piece of heavy stabilizer under the snap. I have a hard time opening my snap and I’m afraid that in time it will tear through the fabric.

    Reviewed by Trina ( Verified Buyer) on 07/04/2023
    This wallet pattern was detailed and easy to follow. My old wallet, which I also made, was a billfold style, and I found it difficult to get my credit cards, etc. in and out. I bought this pattern because it seemed to be more organized, and I find that to be true. The multiple card pockets are helpful, and the cards stay in. Its large size just fits into my very small purse, and I could actually use it as a purse by itself, if I put a strap on it! It has room for everything.

    I made the wallet with vinyl on the outside and cotton on the inside. I made it to match the handbag I had just finished. It turned out good. I did find the directions a bit confusing and I found a YouTube video which really helped.

    Reviewed by Lauren Spence ( Verified Buyer) on 09/30/2019
    I made myself one of these wallets about 2 years ago, and I still use it. I immediately made another as a gift because it was so fun to make! I have just recently re-made them as the fabric was getting a little worn from going in and out of a purse every day. The instructions are clear (as long as you read carefully) and it doesn't take long to make! For this second round, I added a second card pocket behind the change purse and I'm excited to try it out. There were a lot of layers to sew through but my machine could handle it!

      Lovely pattern for a very useful wallet
    Reviewed by Zoe ( Verified Buyer) on 03/11/2018
    Love how this pattern turned out. I can't wait to make more in different colours. Overall the instructions were clear, and the result is a very handy wallet with plenty of space for everything. I think next time I might use a heavier interfacing for the card pockets, so they're held in a bit tighter. The instructions for installing a magnetic snap could be a bit clearer, as well as those for folding and sewing the card pockets. All in all though, a great pattern!

      A bit confused by directions
    Reviewed by Linda Ballard on 02/23/2018
    I was mystified by the lack of a finished edge in the top of the accordion pocket, just a fused edge? Also the placement of the zipper pocket, Placed at the bottom edge of the wallet back that seems to leave a large piece of fabric hanging. The diagram on the previous page shows the zipper pocket at the the upper edge of accordion pocket. How did others handle that? I turned it behind the zipper pocket and made another pocket.

    Reviewed by sharon ( Verified Buyer) on 08/24/2017
    I like my completed wallet. It was a bit like solving a sudoku—thinking and planning were required. In the future, I will experiment with different interfacings. I used velcro for my closure and sewed it in before stitching everything together. Sewing a snap on at the very end would be challenging.

      My new favorite...
    Reviewed by DJR on 04/05/2017
    I love the finished wallet, but had trouble understanding the written directions for the zipper portion of the pattern. However, with help from a friend, we figured it out and were good to go. I've whipped up four wallets and taught some friends how to make it, as well. I've made some adjustments to the pattern, including streamlining the cutting out and interfacing prep process. I've also used fusible fleece on the outside of the wallet so I can quilt it and substituted a heavier interfacing to add some substance to the wallet lining and pockets. I've even added a removable wrist strap and am toying with adding a back pocket for my cell phone. The bones of the pattern are great and with some tweaking, it has become my new favorite.

      A really lovely pattern
    Reviewed by Tanya on 01/10/2017
    I really like this pattern - it makes a lovely wallet and I'm absolutely sure I'll be making more as gifts. I did get stuck on one aspect of the pattern (setting in a snap) but I had a prompt response to my problem which immediately helped me to see where I'd missed a step which is in the pattern guide. And I proceeded to make the wallet from start to finish that evening. Having made my first wallet, I think I will use even firmer interfacing for the outer part, and perhaps the accordian pocket, next time but that's just about the ways one starts to personalise and change things to a pattern when it's a delight to sew. As has been indicated with other reviews, the hard part is making fabric choices!

    Reviewed by Tara ( Verified Buyer) on 12/17/2016
    That pattern is very clearly written. I was rather intimidated at the idea of making a wallet but with the step by step instructions it was actually a fun project. I am looking forward to making a few more. I want one for myself, the hardest part will be finding the material that I want for it. I did modify the direction of the cc pockets after reading another poster's review.

    Reviewed by Lauren Spence ( Verified Buyer) on 10/05/2016
    I can't say how much I loved this pattern. It was so easy to follow, and the instructions were much easier to follow than a store-bought pattern. The small size of this project made printing the pattern pieces out at home a breeze. I followed all the directions and bought the super thick interfacing, which I would definitely recommend. I've been using my wallet for a month now and it works so well. I've been showing it off to anyone who will listen. Loved it!

      Nice Wallet
    Reviewed by Sherril on 07/03/2015
    Love how mine turned out except that I used soft and stable for the wallet. If you use anything very thick for the main wallet to give it structure, don't forget to reduce the size of the lining because of the turn of the cloth. I am getting a lot of buckling because of that. I remembered to cut away for the length, but forgot about the width. :(

    Reviewed by Helen R on 05/17/2015
    Made the wallet in a couple of hours. Instructions clear and easy to follow. I did trace the pattern pieces rather than cut up the original. Also used a strip of touch-and-close tape rather than the snap fastener and it works very well. Only slight drawback is that if you're getting coins out then unless you're careful your cards are upside down and at risk of falling out. Will modify pattern if I make another one.

    Reviewed by Angela Tjelmeland on 05/05/2015
    This pattern is very detailed and flows nicely. I had a little trouble following around step 14, mainly because the pieces are named so similarly. I chose to place my bottom snap prior to sewing the outside wallet pieces together. I did not want it show through the accordian pocket. Placement was difficult. Also, I did not place the top snap low enough on upper lip and it puckers up a bit. I added a driver's license slot to the front of the accordian pocket because that is a feature of current wallets that I really like and would miss on this pattern. I would definately use heavey weight stablizer on the wallet. I used medium/heavy weight fuzable stablizer and it doesn't feel as durable as manufactored wallets. This is the third wallet pattern that I have made and is by far the easiest, most detailed pattern I have used. With a few tweeks, it is easy to perfect and is a nice, useable product.

    Reviewed by Fiona on 11/18/2014
    This is a great pattern that sews up elegantly and comes together pretty quick. It could be improved by simply listing all the various sizes of rectangles that need to be cut instead of having to cut out template pieces. I found myself doing that anyway before I began. I also increased the width of the pieces by 1/2 inch all around as the card pockets were a little too snug for me.
