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?
