I can't never share enough of wallet projects indeed :). I've been wanting to make a simple wallet for my son to be his first wallet. I managed to create one for him (the one with blue rocket/space fabric - leftover from making his quilt few years ago).
I like the outcome so much, then I thought why not make another one (the pink one with button snap closure to add variation to this pattern). Although these wallets are labeled for "kids", they can be made for adult too, especially if you like minimalistic wallet style.
These simple bifold wallets are perfect for kids as their first wallet to carry their student ID, library card, membership card, and a bit of cash (in case they need to bring some to school every now and then).
Finished wallet measurements : Approx. 4" x 3 3/4" (10 x 9.5 cm) Features include : 4x card slots 2 compartments (great for older notes or extra cards) Button snap closure (optional)

WHAT YOU NEED TO MAKE THESE KIDS BIFOLD WALLET
Fabric Fabric 1 : 1/8 yard Cotton quilting fabric Fabric 2 : 1/8 yard OR 1x fat eight Cotton quilting fabric Feel free to use heavier fabric such as canvas or denim for the wallet exterior. INTERFACING/STABILIZER Decor bond (Pellon 809) is applied to the wallet interior, to give the wallet a structure. Alternative choice : Decovil Light, Pellon 808 (craft fuse). Fusible woven interfacing is used to add stability to the wallet exterior panel. You may leave this out if you use heavier weight fabric (e.g. canvas or denim). Lightweight interfacing (I use pellon PLF36), we apply this on the card pocket panels, to give some stability without too much bulkiness. Other 1 set of button snap (12.5 mm) - optional

WHAT YOU NEED TO MAKE THE ZIP AROUND WALLET PURSE FABRIC Cotton quilting fabric is what I use here, about 1/2 yard for the interior, and 1/4 yard for the exterior fabric INTERFACING/STABILIZER Decovil light is applied to the wallet interior, in order to give the wallet a structure. Alternative choice : Pellon 809 (decor bond), Pellon 808 (craft fuse). Fusible woven interfacing is used to add stability to the wallet exterior panels. You may leave this out if you use heavier weight fabric (e.g. canvas or denim). Lightweight interfacing (I use pellon PLF36), we apply this on the card pocket panels, to give a little stability without too much bulkiness. ZIPPER & HARDWARE 20" (teeth length) metal zipper for the zipper closure. All purpose nylon coil zipper at least 8" long for the zipper pocket. 1/2" d-ring - you will need 2x pcs. 1/2" swivel hooks - you will need 3x pcs (2 for the adjustable strap, and 1 for the wristlet strap). 1/2" adjustable strap slider Other RFID blocking fabric (optional) 1/8" basting tape to baste the zipper pocket; 1/4" basting will work as well.

WHAT YOU NEED TO MAKE THIS WALLET
FABRIC Cotton quilting fabric is my fabric of choice for this project, since I always have them on hand, and I love the wide range of beautiful prints available. Cotton quilting fabric is also easy to work with, and you can find them pretty much anywhere at your local fabric store or online. Alternative choice : canvas, linen, or light denim INTERFACING Decovil light is what I use for the external fabric. It is durable, and has that leathery feel to it, yet very easy to work with. I highly recommend this interfacing for wallet making. Alternative choice : Pellon 809 (decor bond), Pellon 808 (craft fuse). Ultra lightweight interfacing - Pellon PLF 36 this one will be used for the card pocket panel, to add a bit of stability without adding too much bulk. Alternative choice : any light weight interfacing (that has no stretch to it). ZIPPER 6" (teeth length) metal zipper for the external zipper pocket. Metal zipper will add an edge to the look of your wallet. Alternative choice : regular nylon coil zipper. Button snap closure 12.5mm for your wallet's closure. 1/8" basting tape to baste your zipper; 1/4" basting will work as well. Clear Vinyl (I use gauge 8 vinyl) - if you opt for ID pocket. 1/2" d-ring and swivel hook - if opt for wristlet strap. 1/2" cotton twill tape - if opt for wristlet strap. RFID blocking fabric (optional) TOOLS Basic Sewing notions; include sewing machine, needle, polyester thread, seam ripper (because we all make mistakes), etc. Walking Foot to sew bulky part with multiple layer of fabric. Trust me, using walking foot will make your life much easier, I use walking foot for general sewing too. Zipper Foot to sew zipper with ease. 1/4" presser foot (if you opt for design 2), this will make sewing patchwork more accurate. Leather hole punch tool to install your button snap closure. You can certainly use the hole punching tool that comes with your button kit, but using this tool will make it much quicker, and it's also a useful tool to have around your house.
