Wow, I love them too!! I second the request for the pattern name, I'm specifically interested in the wallet. Was it difficult? It looks professionally made. What type of fabric did you use?

I'm glad everyone likes my latest project! The fabric came from Hobby Lobby. The front flap of the purse is pieced and the patterns for that are included. The patterns for the purse and credit card holder (and yes, it does have elastic on it, but to make the smaller one, it called for 9 inches of elastic, which was much too short in my opinion. I used enough to go around it with minimum stretching. It also calls for using aluminum foil in it to protect it from your data being stolen. It wasn't hard to work with at all.). The pattern for it and the purse came from Studio Kat Designs. The purse is Hip Bag Hybrid. It was challenging but if you really pay attention to her directions, it isn't so bad. I do have to say the second one will be much easier! She also has a lot of extra hints via PDF files and some videos. The credit card holder is the Card Cozy pattern. It has 2 sizes in it and it was very simple and quick to make. The wallet is the Petite Quilters Wallet Pattern by Pat-E-Patterns. This pattern includes a Checkbook cover, also. It calls for piecing the outside on batting, but since my fabric was striped, I just just it on a 45 degree angle and did some fancy stitching on it. It worked just fine that way. It is a fairly quick and easy pattern. The inside has 4 credit card pockets, and clear pocket for your drivers ID and a zipped change pocket. I have made several of these. I hope this helps all those interested.
