Friday 19 November 2021: Online Workshop (Julia Wallet)

Jennie Pickett from Clover & Violet - Friday 19 November 2021 - 6.00pm to 9.00pm (GMT)

Online Interactive Workshop: Julia Wallet

We're really excited to be hosting this Julia Wallet workshop with the warm, wonderful & hugely talented US crafter Jennie Pickett from Clover & Violet! This class will see participants make this fabulous, multi-purpose wallet which can be put to so many uses - and, with the right fabric choice, makes a perfect festive gift!...

Introduction by Jennie:-

I cannot bear to get rid of scraps, so I’m always looking for a great, scrap-busting project and the Julia Wallet is one of my favourites! This little wallet uses scraps 10” square and smaller and is a great afternoon project that makes the perfect gift too. The wallet comes in two sizes and features a closure (use a magnet, Velcro or snap!), card pockets, bill pocket, and a zipper coin pocket on the back.

What You Will Learn in this Online Interactive Workshop:-

This workshop will teach you how to make your own Julia Wallet, which includes using your scraps, card pockets, magnetic closure (or another closure of your choice), and a zipper coin purse. You’ll learn how to make the wallet as minimally bulky as possible so there’s room for everything you want to carry and not a lot of excess fabric. We will be making the large wallet in class, but the pattern gives options for both sizes.
