I thought I would show you one of my sewing projects I have been working on the last couple of days. This is my trial crayon wallet. I found the idea on Etsy during one of my late night surfing moments. I bought the pattern from Jennifer Casa here at her Etsy shop. The instructions were great and super easy to follow. I want to make one to match my new diaper bag. This one is just my trial run as the fabric to match my diaper bag was quite expensive. I a m glad I did a trial run because there are a few things I learned as I went. The wallet holds 8 crayons, a 3x5 note pad and some stickers. I thought this would be great to carry in the diaper bag for those moments with my 2 1/2 year when you are waiting at a restaurant or at the Doctor's Office. I also have plans to make a few more for gifts for friends who have kids. It only took me about 2 hours to do. That is without counting the countless interruptions from my daughter for snacks and juice. Also the power went out at my house for about 1 hour and 1/2 right in the middle while I was on a roll.
ENJOY!!!
