Travel Passport Wallet Tutorial

Wallet 

So, in case you hadn't heard, and most of you haven't because I am so way new to the blogging world, we are spreading our wings and moving to South Korea this summer. Since there are five of us, we will have a ton of boarding passes, passports and IDs to present at each and every airport along the way! So, I thought I would come up with a Passport Travel wallet to keep all of our documents handy on our travels. Of course, I don't have a passport (my old one expired and new one is in route via USPS!) or a boarding pass on hand for the pic. So I used a check book and regular wallet stuff, and turns out it works great as an everyday wallet too! So, even if you aren't moving to Korea you can still whip up this fun wallet!

               One             4.5" X 8.75           Pocket

              One              4" X 9"                 Pocket 

              Two             4" X 9"                  Strips

Interfacing:

Here is the inside. 

So This is your first step after cutting your fabric. To get the slanted pocket just  measure in 1" on the top and 1" on the side and put a small dot at both. Use a ruler to connect the dots and cut along that line.

Create a finished edge for the opening of both pockets.

Front piece

My straps are a little long in this pictures. I cut them down after taking the picture. Sorry, didn't mean to be confusing!

Almost done...

I marked this picture for what I intend the pockets to be used for during travel. But I kinda like my checkbook and all in here. I think I may start using it everyday !

Thanks for stopping by! 

I would love to hear from you!
