My niece ordered a wallet for her mom so her mom won’t take her new wallet I made for her. Hahahaha. She said, bigger wallet than her wallet and bills can be kept there. Big size isnt my thing. I’d been wondering the design until I remember, this kind of common design. It wasn’t kind of original design since this kind of wallet is a lot out there (^_^). So, I made this wallet for her mother. This is my first try of making this kind of wallet. I hope, they like it, especially her mother. Haha.

Thank goodness, there are still (old) people loving kind of cute things.

PS: I want to write the tutorial but i think this kind of wallet isn’t difficult to make. By looking the inside, I think, how to make it is quite ‘imagine-able’. I just want to write small note of tips later.

 

Transparent Thread

Transparent thread are made from very thin plastic. I use it sometimes when i want to sew something but I’m not sure what color to use.

The example case is when i want to sew white pearl on black ribbon. If i used black thread, it will be visible on white pearl though a bit. If I used white thread, it will be visible on black ribbon though a bit. Using transparent thread is a good option in this case.

Another example, i saw some ribbons have beads sewn on to. The thread used is transparent. It won’t ‘ruin’  the color of the beads as well as the ribbon itself.
