    Default Scrap talk-projects you've made with scraps

    My husband and I went to a motorcycle show and I put my purse in the trunk of the car so I wouldn't have to carry it. And I thought, it would be awesome to have a little pouch for just my phone, ID and card, maybe a little cash too, that had a strap that went around my wrist.

    And then it was born.

    I had no idea how to make a wallet so through trial and error I came up with something that would hold my ID and card. My phone squeezes in there with it's case. It works lol.

    What have you done?

    I made something similar for a passport/debit card/credit card, except I used ribbon so I could wear it around my neck under my shirt when we went to France. Your bag is cute.

    I used my scraps in a crumb quilt. $" blocks. some of the blocks have as few as 5 pieces and some have 15 pieces.

    I like to make wallets, coin purses. My recent one was a coin purse with a zipper that looks like a diamond.
