Loyalty Card Wallet

February 6, 2012 By Spoonful of Sugar - 22 Comments

Long time readers of our blog may remember one of our earlier tutorials, to make a Scrappy Loyalty Card Wallet (originally blogged here). I have had my loyalty card wallet in use since 2009 and it is now showing signs of wear so it was time for an update.

I teamed scraps from the yellow colourway from the Picnics and Fairgrounds collection by DS Quilts with some linen.

And finished it off with a vintage style button.

The wallet is sized to fit up to 16 loyalty cards. Much nicer than my original wallet:)

You can find the pdf of the tutorial here.

    I’m still using the one you sent me as a thank you gift for hosting the tea swap. You used Amy Butler Midwest Modern and I love this handy loyalty card wallet. Love your new version.

    Thanks for this. I need to make a new wallet for my daughter! I can use the leftover fabrics from the purse I am making! It’s perfect – won’t she be surprised.

    That is a true testament to your wallet, that it lasted for several years. Such a cool little project!

    Cute, but I am unable to download the tutorial. I have a Facebook account, allow SCRIBD to access it and still I get an error message that says it is unavailable.

    Love this idea! I can’t handle all those cards in my wallet. Now to just figure out how to thread a sewing machine….

    Love those fabrics. These days, I think I have more loyalty cards than cash in my wallet.

    Great idea- thanks for posting tutorial. But how does it hold 16 cards? I see only 6 slots.

    I made this and the instuctions were great and the wallet is super cute. However, after making it, I think the cards could easily fall out the side of the wallet. I’m wondering if next time I might change the size and direction of the pockets so they could go vertical instead of horizontal so the cards can’t fall out. Maybe I will experiment with that next time. What do you think?

There’s something so lovely about putting together There’s something so lovely about putting together a bright, happy self‑care gift… especially when it’s handmade.  I stitched a colourful set using Ruby Star Society fabrics - a Relaxation Eye Pillow and a Heavenly Heatpack - and styled them into a complete gift bundle.To make it feel extra special, I lined a small bamboo tray with soft tissue, added the two calming makes, tied them with a pink ribbon, and tucked in a few thoughtful extras: a candle, a box of speciality tea, and a tiny plant. It’s simple, cheerful, and such a beautiful way to show someone you care.Both projects are scrap‑friendly, beginner‑friendly, and quick to sew - perfect for weekend making or last‑minute gifting.If you’d like to sew your own self‑care set, comment SELFCARE and I’ll send you the link to the bundle.

Thank you so much for the wonderful reception to t Thank you so much for the wonderful reception to the Quadra Pouch launch last week — I’m thrilled you’re loving this pattern as much as I do.Today I’m sharing a brand new Tilda version, stitched in the large size and made entirely from blenders. I used four Bellflower prints from the Wallflower range for the exterior, and four Stella prints from the Songbird collection for the lining — eight fabrics in total, making it delightfully scrappy.I love how easily Tilda collections mix and match, and how each corner of the pouch showcases a different print. The clever panel construction gives the pouch a neat flat base without boxed corners, and the result is both practical and beautifully structured.If you’d like to sew your own, the Quadra Pouch pattern is available in both my Pattern Store and Etsy Shop.Comment QUADRA and I’ll send the link straight to you.Pattern Details: Quadra Pouch (3 Sizes) - available in our Pattern Store and Etsy ShopFabric: Bellflower blenders and Stella blenders from Tilda, with thanks to @tilda_australia#tildafabrics #quadrapouch #sewingproject #scrapfriendlysewing #pouchpattern
