My first project was a Have It All Wallet, made from a pattern designed by Liesl + Co.. It has pockets, pockets and MORE pockets!
The fabrics were from the Cookie Book collection by Kim Kight for Cotton + Steel. The woven selvage edge says, "Full cookie jar, happy home."
I chose a diamond print for two pocket linings -- a fun little surprise -- and a beautiful navy fabric with just a hint of mint for the card pockets and zipper pocket.
It was a bit of a challenge edge stitching through so many layers, but overall, I am happy with the result.
The shop owner, Allie, provides the fabric. The sample stays in the shop for a few months, and then it's mine. A win-win proposition in my book. And, hence the title of today's post: Will work for fabric!
I'm working on a MUCH larger shop sample project now, but it is still a WIP (work in progress).

Congrats again! That is such a great collaboration! I LOVE the wallet with the multiple pockets :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun collaboration! I hope you get to make all kinds of fun samples for them. Can't wait to see the large one you're working on!
ReplyDeleteI have never tried to make one of these type of wallets. It does look a bit complicated. Looks like you did an awesome job! Cute fabrics!
ReplyDeleteVery cool! Great design and what a neat exchange of making a display product for some fabric. =)
ReplyDeleteThese are great LeAnn - and such a good idea :) Your stitching is always so perfect (not all wonky like mine ;) )
