Bought a sewing machine with a gift card my mama and papa gave me, tested it out with a few scraps and some random pieces, and have been experimenting with random online patterns/tutorials.
Tonight I finally made my first usable item that didn't turn out all wonky and crooked (much)
It's a small key ring wallet. I'm starting to realize that carrying tons of crap in a huge tote bag might not be the most convenient thing in the world, nor the best for my back and shoulders in the long run. Thus, I found this pattern online and changed the layout a bit and added the key ring tab. I wanted something that had minimal card pockets with maximum space. all of my cards i need to carry with me fit in the two pockets with room to spare. behind the card pockets is where the cash/receipts can go, and the zip compartment is for spare change.
There are a few things I'd change about it. I would change the location of the key tab and move it just a bit from where it's at now, i'd change the card pockets/bill slot and zip compartment around. I'd have the pocket openings and zipper facing the center. I would also maybe make the key tab a bit longer.
ugh.
anyway, just thought i'd share my new little obsession with all of you in cyber space:)
