This is a slim wallet for carrying a few cards and some cash.<\/p>\n<p>I really enjoy the process of this work. It&#8217;s a nice change from my usual high production mode &#8211; no machines, just my own two hands. This kind of work takes time. It is slow and methodical. From start to finish there are many processes, and the finished result has a satisfying richness &#8211; all that work packed into a small and beautiful object, which should last a lifetime.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center;\">+++<\/p>\n<p>The top photo is somewhat unrelated, though it does represent a starting point. This pocket wallet was inspired by my own simple needs. I like to travel pretty light, and what is shown at the top is the contents of my purse on most any given day. The wallet there is one I made for myself a few weeks ago (machine stitched). And for curious minds, although it&#8217;s mostly self explanatory I guess; pictured is my wallet, a hair clip, desert essence shea butter lip rescue, a tiny bottle of dr. bronner&#8217;s (so I don&#8217;t have to use the perfumed chemical soaps in public bathrooms), a pile of change; and my house, car and shed key on a key fob I made. One of these days I will have my own hand stitched wallet (and a change purse!).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>+++ I&#8217;ve been working on some hand stitched leather items, and have just added the first small wallet &#8211; the pocket wallet &#8211; to the shop.
