Minimalist Wallet 2.0 Collection Showcase: The Sterling Wallet

The Sterling Wallet is one of my faves in the new Minimalist 2.0 Collection because it has so many pockets! I love the traditional bi-fold style, with the addition of the accent on the front that doubles as an extra pocket! It's perfect for keeping your ID handy. This Beginner friendly pattern is designed to be made in any non-fraying material and sew up super quick. Most of my testers were able to go from cutting to trimming the final seam in less than 20 minutes.



The Sterling has a large cash pocket, and exterior accent pocket, and 4 internal card pockets. It measures 2.75" W x 3.25"H when closed, so it easily fits in your pocket or purse. As with all the wallets in the collection, it's perfect for using up your scraps that you can't bear to part with! My testers did some INCREDIBLE versions in various materials and I love them all!!





Britteny of EOD Embroidery Only Designs is a master at embroidery, but a self reported beginner sewist, and she rocked this vinyl version!



I love the color pairings on of Handmade by Lori's version, the floral with the orange just makes those pockets POP!



Leesh of The Rose of Valhalla did a stunning white vinyl version, and I love how classy it turned out!







Pam of Bluebyebye made not one, but THREE all in different materials: Cork, vinyl and Kraftex! If you look closely, you'll see she added a perforated detail on the Kraftex and it looks so cool!!


The Sterling is available as an individual PDF pattern or as a part of the Minimalist 2.0 CollectionEach pattern includes pattern pieces, instructions and color illustrations. Each Pattern is beginner friendly and is perfect to try your hand at sewing with a new material, in a cost effective way! Use up all those scraps you haven't been able to part with and always have a last minute gift on hand!

Minimalist 2.0 Collection Showcase: Introducing the Livre Wallet pdf pattern

First up in the Minimalist 2.0 showcase, is my favorite, the Livre Wallet. This small little guy is the perfect mix up of a coin purse and a wallet. With 4 exterior card slots and one deep zippered pocket, this little guy packs a lot for his small size!

As with all the wallets in the collection, you can make one up in scraps in less than 10 steps from start to finish. All you need are scraps and a 3" zipper. This wallet sews up beautifully in cork, vinyl, leather or any non-fraying materials.

Are you ready for the tester versions? They absolutely nailed it!

First up is Pam from Bluebyeye, she made two jaw dropping versions! One in Sew Hungry Hippie Vinyl and the other in patterned cork. I love how she added a zipper pull to both versions and really shows off how a small bit of bling can add so much to a project!





Next up Betty made these Stellar versions in some more yummy Sew Hungry Hippie vinyl, how fun are those stars???


Lori of Handmade by Lori whipped up this beauty in orange and floral cork and it is so lovely!! The colors just POP! 


I love this vinyl version by Leesh at The Rose of Valhalla, these novelty vinyls are so perfect!


This lace cork version is by the one and only Amy of Off With Their Threads Embroidery. I love this combo of different corks!


I LOVE all these versions, and I hope you do too! Shout out to my incredible testers who made this all possible!! 

You can purchase the Livre pdf pattern individually or as a part of the Minimalist 2.0 Collection. Each pattern includes pattern pieces, instructions and color illustrations. Each Pattern is beginner friendly and is perfect to try your hand at sewing with a new material, in a cost effective way!
