I follow Tendersmile also and several other non verbal sewing tutorials. I like so many of the videos each one, including you, has their own "saved" category on my RUclips! Maybe someday I will actually stop saving them and start making them. It's fun to dream...
This is AMAZING!! I wish this could be a series that you do! It’s so helpful bc there are so many non audible videos that are great, but no one explains things as clearly as you do even in some of the audible ones. 😉 can’t wait to make this wallet. It’s so great!
Great tutorial! I’ll have to try this one too! total of 100 donation bags done. Just got home from picking up toothpaste. Now to pick them up and deliver. I really like all your projects and they are very useful too!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thanks Mom. Christine, thanks for showing this darling wallet. I too watch a few designers from other countries who do not speak at all during the project construction. Some of my favorites I can follow the quilted designs, and others, as is with a more complex project, I just sigh... Thanks again

Thank you Christine and Mum… a great wallet and as always clear concise instructions. I love the way you explain why you are doing certain steps as it makes sense and if we know why I think it helps us retain those steps in the overall process! You are a great teacher😊 Thank you again for sharing your knowledge I greatly appreciate it.❤
Another great video. We tried it with vinyl. Although it was totally doable, I am not happy with it as it doesn’t sit nice and flat so I will give it a go with some decovil to give it the stiffness I was after. Thanks again 😊
Good morning Aussie girl Greetings from cold and almost snowy Pacific NW It’s about 3 AM here. No wait a minute 4 AM always a good time to watch a tutorial. Also, what would make this tutorial a 10 out of 10 which very very few people do is always mention the type of needle you used the type of thread you used and the stitch length There are a lot of people who may not know the best options
@@ChristinesHomeAffairs well, we want to set people up for success, and I belong to a Facebook group for both of my machines actually three of my machines and you would be surprised or would not be surprised how many questions come up about needles so I do think it’s extremely important to put that information in there You probably don’t have time to watch other RUclips channels, but Vanessa who has the channel called “the crafty Gemini” She is one of the few that will actually tell you stitch length and needle type and sometimes will talk about thread. It’s amazing how many people just leave out that information I thought it would be helpful and it would have your video stand out amongst the thousands of other sewing channels ❤️❤️👍🏻
You have such clear instructions! Thank you. I have done a few projects, but zippers scare me 😂. I haven’t ever changed a presser foot. 🤷🏻♀️ is that something you might be able to show?
Oh Christine, i love this project you make it look so easy. It turned out really well. Do you think that it would be ok to use decovil stabiliser on the outer fabric just to make it firmer or would it be too hard to turn at the end? Thanks again.😊
I think I'd prefer it with the Decovil too Janet, but thought it might be too stiff. It would help if you made the opening for turning through a lot bigger. let me know if that works😀
It's funny Lucille, in all my videos I have fractions for Americans. As this was from tendersmile's video, I used same measurements. I found it difficult converting her measurements, so left as is. I'll definitely be sticking with my own format 😊
Hi Christine, I love this project and think I'll be making it for my mom.

I invested in a couple of metric sewing rulers. They're inexpensive on Temu and other sites. I'm not a metric person either, but I can follow along using the proper rulers without fighting to figure out inches.
I have the same problem with measurements Cathy and you've also just answered a question for me. As mentioned in the video, this is the same as Tendersmiles video, so used her measurements. I always use fractions, and should have done it here. Fractions for card slots are 3½, 2⅛,1¾.
I love this but got very confused at mid stage and have given up. First time ever that I’ve struggled with one of your videos. I just struggled with the after adding the zip part

Thanks Linda. All my videos have inches in them except this one where I thought I might have been too repetitive. The fabric measurements have inches in the list though. Will stick to my usual format in the next video though😀

@@ChristinesHomeAffairs I was wanting the finished outside dimensions. I’m trying to see if it will fit in a small crossbody I have already made. I really like the design and your instructions are excellent! Thanks!
i do not understand what 3.54, 2.17, 1.77 mean ? i see these kind of numbers all the time now, but i dont know how to figure them. i have done some research but i just dont know what its called or how to do it,, what happened to people just using fractions, i want to learn so i can keep up with the times if i have too. can you help with this please?

This project is adorable and so functional as a 'carry essentials' little wallet!!!

In the United States we only use inches please!Cute wallet.I have a bag like this but I have a place for my checkbook too.

Hi Christine, I love this project and think I'll be making it for my mom. As a couple others have already commented, would it be possible for you to re-edit the video and add inches where you've only mentioned cm? Would be a great help.

I'm sorry you had trouble with this Sharon. Not sure how to improve on that😀
@@ChristinesHomeAffairs I’m going to try it again, probably me. Thanks for answering tho xx
What seam allowance did you use
I used 1cm Kay😁
@@ChristinesHomeAffairs thank you.
Could you please post your beautiful projects in inches?
I bought a couple of inexpensive metric rulers on Temu. I don't think in metric, but I can manage with the right rulers.
or simply divide those metric #s by 2.54 to get an inch measurement
Thx Christine for another useful free tutorial.
