Description

It's not perfect but I know my second attempt is going to be smashing!

Instructions

  1. Small audio cassette 1 1244795864

    Cut every piece you need, lining is optional if you do want to make that simply decrease sizes of wallet by 0,25cm and hand stitch it in.

  2. Small img 3430 1244796264

    Take the two long strips of fabric. During sewing leave the zipper open until the point where you have to go past the zipper thingy and close it.

  3. Small img 3438 1244796589

    Take the cassette tape part and bottom part and place it right sides together. sew till corner of cassette tape (on picture marked with red line)

  4. Small img 3441 1244796844

    fold sides of bottom over and sew (if you have trouble folding it or holding it down while sewing snip the corner a bit but not entirely to corner)

  5. Small img 3443 1244796931

    Do the same with the other side and you should now have this. <-

  6. Small img 3446 1244797012

    Facing wrong side of wallet sew in zipper, leaving zipper slightly open at all times! Sew other side.

    When you have finished the wallet take the cassette. Open it and remove all things inside; all things includes plastic pointy things which you can remove by use of needle nose pliers

    Once the cassette is all smooth glue it onto the wallet (keeping in mind to place right side up). Wait till one side dries because you want the two parts to be on same level and they may slide once you try to glue them both onat the same time. When the glue has dried on both sides you can begin to sew in the lining by hand.
