This is an old business card holder design by digistitches that my DH absolutely loves. He uses it for his wallet. I've had to repair it multiple times and make adjustments as it wasn't designed as a wallet. The plastic tears at the sides over time. I added gussets to the plastic to make more room and also ribbonover the seams of the plastic to make it last longer. The first Pic is of the original wallet. I told him it had reach a point I couldn't repair it. The second and third pics are the new wallet I made him for his birthday. Hope he likes it. He's been telling me he likes the first one and doesn't want a new one. Oh well, the first has been well loved. Lol.

14637I thought I had commented but maybe forgot to hit submit. Anyhow, this is excellent work on leather. I know he will appreciate it.
109777Wonderful job Congratulations. Know he is excited with his new wallet.
6756Hi Debbie, this is superb and I know he will appreciate the time, effort and love that went into sewing him a new one. Lovely to see long marriages these days. We've got 51 coming up in January and I know there are ladies on here with lots more. Merry Christmas to you and yours. Love Chris

234478Sorry, today I am having whatever issues viewing your pictures except for thumbnails but this is excellent. I read that you used leather. Way to go. I wonder if the heavier gauge clear vinyl would rip as easily. I am no expert, just wondering. I need to make something like this for myself, lol.

Yes I use a heavy guage vinyl and then double it. I don't think it would be an issue if he used as intended but since he uses it as a wallet, it gets a lot of use.
