Patchwork Billfolds
 
3 Attachment(s)
Here are a couple of trifold patchwork billfolds I finished recently.
I make them trifold with a pocket on each end on the inside with 3 credit card pockets in the center of the inside. I use velcro as closures cause I find it easier to do than zippers. Tho I used to use zippers.
I also add a pocket on the outside of the billfold.

The sizes depend on the size of the mini quilt I make for the front. I started making these in 1990 and have made quite a few over the years.

The green one is 6" x 4 3/4"
The red one is 5 1/2" x 4 1/4"

The red one isn't as crooked as it looks LOL it just wouldn't stay straight for the picture.

Absolutely cute. Thanks for an idea. I am making Bible bags and always looking for patterns of small 3" finished blocks. Will have to draw it now so I don't forget.
