1. DOWNLOAD THE WALLET PATTERN

Download and print the pattern.

Flat and simple design model (2 pieces), the pattern is designed for 1.2 mm leathers. If the leather is thicker or thinner, the pattern will need to be revised slightly to take the thickness into account.

For this pattern, the leather chosen is 1.2 mm smooth caramel-coloured collar. The sewing thread is black waxed cotton. The seam spacing is 5mm. The slices are smoothed with beeswax and a burnisher (general purpose smoother). Finally, the closing system is via a 12 mm ball snap button.
