Amidst long sewing projects, sometimes I need a distraction to get the juices flowing again. Seeing Meg’s tutorial was just the trick I needed for something different, eye catching, quick, and fun!
I tend to collect certain magazines and catalogs: Martha Stewart Living {which I wouldn’t dare cut up}, Pottery Barn Kids, Land of Nod, Magic Cabin ~ these I haven’t gotten rid of. This project was just the excuse I needed to cut some of these up. The key I found was color. Finding different spreads through the catalog that mimicked the same color palette gave a cohesive look to my wallet.
I may have spent 30 minutes on the whole project to whip up one of these cuties. I think I will add a small bit of Velcro to keep the coin tab in place. The kids will adore these!!

The link to the PDF template for these cute wallets no longer works in Meg's tutorial. If you still have it, could you please post it?
Thanks.
I have sent an email to Meg asking for it.
Just wondering if you have gotten word about the template from Meg; would really appreciate it if you/she could repost :) Will be checking in periodically, love the blog!
