BTW, NICE wallet!
I am so glad you told me this. It will save me the trouble of trying the wrong closure! Thanks so much kathy!

I am going to make six more of these for christmas gifts to my sil's. I am so glad I bought the pattern!

dakotamaid and quiltlovr,
Thanks so much! I have to slow way down to topstitch and many times I use a heat disapearing marker to make the lines before stitching and a top stitching needle helps too.
Maybe this will help you a little next time.
Now why haven't I thought of that??? Thanks for the great tip!!

Wonderful! Do you know the website where I could buy the pattern? I would love to try to make one.

Very nice and quite fancy too. How long did it take you to make this?
