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.

    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?

Inspired by ancient pharaoh queens, they draw on generations of women, culture, sacrifice, and resilience to find their strength.Tess calls this “the book of her heart,” weaving her family history into a story of sisterhood, identity, faith, strong women, and delicious Egyptian food.While reading, I kept thinking about the three Albi sisters — Sarah, Aya, and Lola — each navigating their own challenges, each fighting for the life she deserves.So I stitched three Heart Bookmarks, one to represent each sister. A tiny handmade nod to their courage, creativity, and connection.Each bookmark is made from quilting cotton, wool felt, lace, and a silky tassel — quick to sew, lovely to gift, and perfect for marking your place in a story full of strong women.I was completely captivated by The Cairo Bridal Shop.

The cultural details, the food, the history, the Cairo setting — it all felt vivid and immersive.A beautiful, emotional story of family, identity, courage, and the strength we find in the women around us.If you only read one book this year, make sure it is The Cairo Bridal Shop.If you’d like to stitch your own Heart Bookmark, the pattern is free.Comment BOOKMARK and I’ll send you the link.A sweet, quick project — perfect paired with a good book.Thanks for being here — I love sharing small sewing projects that bring joy to your day.
