I have been looking for the perfect wallet for years.<\/p>\n

So today, to celebrate the beginning of Spring Break, I decided to make one. This is also a part of my decision to make sure that I don’t spend the entirety of the spring break just looking around on the internet. I am totally capable of doing that as I proved in December and then again in February. Many long weekends have been sucked in by the web as well.<\/p>\n

Anyway, I found a wallet pattern (which I almost called a recipe) here<\/a>. I made some teensy changes, one being a half-inch accident. The other change that I made was not to sew through all of the inside layers. I wanted to be able to put cash in the wallet for those rare cases when I actually do carry cash.<\/p>\n

I wouldn’t call this a successful project, but I might try it again. I made some hasty mistakes in the beginning and by the end (knowing that I had already made mistakes) just rushed to get through it. I do like that my cards aren’t floating about in my purse and that in the rare occasion that I’m carrying cash, I won’t cram it in a pocket (to be forgotten and eventually laundered).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
