handmade zipper accordion wallet


This is my first take on making a zipper accordion wallet. I have longed to make one and just couldn't find any tutorials online so I just settled by making it using a wallet that I bought as a sample. Pretty tough though! 


As I don't do much with stuff finished by using the bias tape , making one like this is absolutely driving me crazy! I was trying to get it right + perfect + nice smooth joining (thats it!).



Making the interior part of the purse, sides and divider is a breeze *yippee* maybe I need to improvise it by adding zipper coin slots in the middle, that would make it! (yeah exactly like the wallet that I bought he he he)


Anyway I was so relieved that I made it and with better luck next time around, I'll do more of it (thats for sure).
Have a nice weekend !

  4. Hi Nadia,

    that wallet looks amazing. I have been searching all over the internet for a tutorial to make a similar one. This is how I cam across your blog. Could you send me an email explaining how you got the zipper on? Or even posting a tutorial yourself? That would be really awesome and I would be really greatful.

    thanks
    Ayla
