After making the
Oriole Bag recently, I decided I would make a matching Little Wallet (Valori Wells Design) to go with the purses I make from now on. I will include the Little Wallets in the purse for free. Well of course it is Murphy's Law that when you decide to do something, ol' Murphy throws up a bit of a roadblock. My first Little Wallet and I barely had enough of the cat print fabric left at all, juts small pieces. Well that never stopped me from thinking creatively in order to make it work. I had enough of the chocolate brown fabric, so I pieced the cat print with the brown in order to create the outside piece. I did have enough to make the lining out of the lighter cat print. So Murphy take that! I did it.

I used a Kam snap for the closure as they are the easiest snaps to insert, but also to snap and unsnap. |

There are 3 pockets for cards and the back one for folded cash as it is the deepest. |

This is the back of the wallet. I had to add strips of brown to the top, sides and bottom, but when it is all folded up, it just looks like a frame around the cats. I was great to be able to make this wallet to include with the Oriole Bag and to use up all of the cat print too.
