Notepad and Pencil Wallet



Yay, I've finally finished this wonderful Notepad and Pencil Wallet that has been in progress for about two months now (it hasn't taken the whole two months I might just add, just other things have been getting in the way). I followed a tutorial from Skip to my Lou which worked perfectly, just needed some tweaking as my notepad was a different size. 

It was made from the same fabric as my Toddler Bag Handle for the same lucky man (he loved the dinosaur fabric), who now has a gorgeous baby sister. Master T definitely loved his dinosaur notepad and pencil wallet!

I've already started on the next project, I'm using an actual *proper* pattern for this one, so fingers crossed ... I followed Catherine's advice and spent all last night tracing out my pattern pieces.

Watch this space ...


Look at what arrived in the mail today! Hooray! Even my husband was a little excited for me (he helped me choose the fabrics, because I always love them all and can't choose).

So keep a lookout between now and the end of the year for what these gorgeous fabrics are going to be used for. I hope I will do them justice.
