@rosedumas4775 3 года назад

The pattern is great...love the black cork...made it for my son who needed a wallet(had one for 30 yrs) He loved the wallet but he wanted an ID window. Purchased the kit so I did not have enough for an add on ID window. I took a piece of tan cork and dyed it black and made an ID rectangle with a flap that I glued to one of the card slots. Would love to share a picture.

@julialusk3888 4 года назад

Sorry you answered my question. Thanks

@sadiejosiemom 4 года назад

It goes together so quickly! But like you say you've made hundreds of them so it would be quick! I haven't sewn with cork or purchased anything made with it. How does it hold up? I imagine it becomes burnished as do leather wallets especially for men who pocket carry. My favorite wallet is a zip around that opens up and lays flat. It's similar to your tall wallet. It has an inner zip compartment.

@SewGnar 4 года назад

They hold up great! I have examples of heavily used wallets in my websites FAQs if you care to see for yourself!

@bagsandbling7564 3 года назад

What size needle do you use for sewing cork? Can you sew it on a domestic machine?

@SewGnar 3 года назад

I sew everything on a domestic! I use Schmetz Microtex needles size 14 or 16.

@ziniahossain8216 3 года назад

Can I make this wallet with leather?? & whats products use for side finishing in leather please tell !!

@SewGnar 3 года назад

Hi Zinia, yes it can be made in leather. You may want a stiffer leather so it holds its shape. I'm not super familiar with leatherwork but from what I gather you can burnish the edges or finish with leather edge paint.

@tinahale5369 4 года назад

Can I use a light weight vinyl for this pattern?

@SewGnar 4 года назад

Yep!

@mrsboss1055 7 месяцев назад

I'm in process of making my first wallet with this pattern. I'm using soft leather. Should I use a stabilizer to give it support?

@SewGnar 7 месяцев назад

If you prefer the feel of a more stable wallet then I'd suggest it, yes. But keep in mind once you have all the layers together and it's full of cards, it'll give it more uumph!

@NikkiVelazquez 2 года назад

I'm at the last step and getting nothing but skipped stitches. I was using the same new 14 microtex needle, teflon foot, Juki TL2010Q. I switched to a 16 jeans needle, no improvement. I tried a 18 universal needle, and that's skipping too. I also tried compressing the layers of cork with a key fob pliers. What am I missing??

@SewGnar 2 года назад

Hmm im not sure. Sometimes these machines can be a pain in the ass. Have you tried rethreading? You can also hand crank the wheel. Make sure the bobbin these is being caught by the upper thread by hand cranking just a smidge before continuing to sew.

@NikkiVelazquez 2 года назад

@@SewGnar I hadn't thought of rethreading but I will try that. I also wonder if maybe my stitch length is too short as I used a 3.5.

@SewGnar 2 года назад

I would think that would be fine. I use between a 3.5 and a 4 when I sew cork.

@NikkiVelazquez 2 года назад

@@SewGnar I think it came out ok, but I had to resew a lot of spots. It's for my daughter, so if it falls apart I can make her another one, no big deal. I already ordered more cork... This stuff is fun to work with and nice to use something that's good for the planet and also not leather which creeps me out.

@Sewlady718 3 года назад

My husband has been asking me for a wallet with a lot of card slots!!! This is perfect. Thanks for a great pattern and video. Can you tell me where you got your stamp logo?

@SewGnar 3 года назад

The cork tags are from All This Wood and the brand is from Branding Irons Unlimited.

@imagesbynancy Год назад

i find my edges of the card slots messy looking with the glue or edge coat. any suggestions.

@SewGnar Год назад

I wish I had a better suggestion but all I can say is keep practicing!

@diawalsh Год назад

I am almost finished with this, but I do not have the room for a “gulley”? My pieces all lined up exactly. The cash slot panel is the same length as the outside panel. I cut out the pattern exactly correct so I’m not sure what happened? Actually, what ended up happening is that my cash slot piece overhung the outer piece in order to get the gulley so that it would fold properly. Sort of in reverse of what you did. I made 2 at the same time and it happened with both.Not sure what I did, but I did it twice. Lol

@SewGnar Год назад

The cash slot panel should be .25” shorter than the main panels! The pattern has those measurements in step 1! Let me know if you have anymore issues.

@diawalsh Год назад

@@SewGnar thanks! I’ll give it another try!

@deenawillis1597 3 года назад

I recently purchased this pattern. How much are you cutting off each corner. I’m wanting to cut this using my circuit. Are you using any RFID material?

I sell SVG files for the wallet that you can use on your cricut! Sometimes I use RFID if customers request it but in this video I am not.

SewGnar do I need to purchase the SVG file. Just let me know. Thanks

@marisolpellam7858 2 года назад

Hello! I bought your wallet pattern an SVG file today and it cut beautifully on my Silhouette cutter. I haven't put it together yet but I will tomorrow. I have a question, when you use glue and then sew over it, does your needle gum up? Also, I love your stamp with your logo! Can you share where you got it? It looks great in the wallet!

@SewGnar 2 года назад

The glue I use doesn’t gum my needle, no! And my stamp is a branding iron, and I have an entire video about it here on my page!
