Travel & Passport Wallet 2

I made this Passport Travel Wallet for my sister and gave it to her in December. She and her husband will be traveling in the summer to visit her eldest son who is living in Taipei, Taiwan. (My son is also living in Taiwan in a different city).

This passport wallet will hold their passports, tickets, currency and more. The pattern is from So Sew Easy and this is the second wallet I made, but on this one I changed some things. I added a tab closure with a magnetic snap and inside I angled the pockets instead of making them rounded like the pattern. I also lined the longer currency pockets.

I only had a small piece of the airplane/map fabric and it wasn't enough for the exterior of the wallet, so I added a border all around it to make it large enough. I like how that framed the other fabric. 

Inside is room for tickets, passports, currency and ID cards and more. Perfect size for holding essentials 2 or more people.

The back/front opened up to show how it looks from the outside.

I am glad I was able to use this cute fabric at last.

Travel & Passport Wallet

I made this Travel & Passport Wallet, a pattern by So Sew Easy. I used Hot Air Balloon fabric because I put this in a little gift shop in Albuquerque to sell for the upcoming International Balloon  Fiesta (starting the 1st weekend in October each year). It sold right away! Yay!!! It was a fun pattern and a great way to use up small amounts of fabric for the inside pockets.

It folds in half and the red hair tie wraps around the handmade button to keep it closed.

Inside I used a variety of fabrics that coordinated with the hot air balloon fabric. I also printed out a couple of signs (one for tickets and one for passport) so that when someone looked at it they would know what it was for. This is a good wallet for a couple or family, as there are pockets on both sides for tickets and passports, plus cash can be slipped into either side under the pockets where the yellow striped binding is. The 2 lower smaller pockets can hold ID or credit cards. 

Here you can see it opened out to show the back and front exterior. I may make another one of these for someone I know who will be traveling next year, but I will use different fabrics.

I am participating in Elm StreetQuilts Bag it 2017 and added this to the entry.
