The zippered pocket on the wallet was just something I came up with. I've made several purses from patterns and a couple of wallets from tutes. Once you do it a couple of times you learn the ins and outs and dont need a patttern. On the wallet I used a salad plate to make the curved flap. I'm always trying to find something new to sell in my little shop. I think this one might be a keeper.
    How about doing a tutorial on the wallet?

    So creative and trendy looking!

    The finished bag and wallet do not resemble placements at all.

    That wallet is awesome... don't think I would ever be able to make one of those without a pattern. Great Job!
