This is actually the first zippy wallet I've made in months! I saw this photo and just loved the look of linen. It was a perfect match for the gift I was making. I didn't realize how fun these are to make, I wish I could make a hundred!
In case anyone out there is curious, just thought I'd share my zipper source. I should keep it top secret, haha, so I can keep all her zippers to myself, but...
Anyway, I buy all my zippers through Zipit on Etsy. It's really awesome for me because she lives relativley close by. Jennie is the shop owner and she is AWESOME at customer service, plus the sizes and color selections are great.



Wow.. I really love the wallet...
ReplyDeleteBut I've a question.. how do you get 3 collums?
hey fleur, I used this tute: http://www.threecolumnblogger.com/2008/09/adding-third-column-to-blogger.html
ReplyDeleteit depends on your blog layout though (there are different links on their sidebar for each layout) hope that helps!
Anna, love the colors you used for this one. The outside pocket with the flap is great. I'm almost to the point where I can start some real sewing stuff again. This will be on my list!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend.
this is such a great little wallet...very cute
ReplyDeleteHi Anna! That's also where I get my zippers from too - I love her customer service as well.
ReplyDeleteCute, cute, cute! That is fabulous! Great idea when you only have a tiny bit of cute fabric left. I love that plaid by the way.
ReplyDeleteDO make a hundred!

Ohmygosh, I totally came to tell you
ReplyDelete1) i love the playroom and
