PPC29: I’ll Fly Away

So…

I had a lot of fun with this particular sample. The fabric I used is called “Alluring Butterflies” , but to be honest, I had no idea there were actually butterflies in this print until I looked up the name of the fabric! I paired it with our brand new zipper style with a tweed lame tape and colorful variegated zipper teeth! I’ll tell you more about BOTH of these items at the end of the post, but for now…

Let me give you the Grand Tour of this Sample!

In these two interior shots you can see that there are slots for eight credit cards (stacked on their ends).
There’s also plenty of room to safely store your passport, cash, a pen and even a phone!

And here’s a couple closeup shots of the “other side of the interior”.
Here you can see our brand new plastic ID Holder which is easy schmeasy to sew in place.
I also replaced my phone with a pair of readers which also fit easily inside this thin-style wallet.

And when I say this wallet is thin… I am serious about that. And here’s the deal… it easily fits into all but my tee-tiniest of bags and I have really enjoyed the flexibility of carrying it with a wristlet strap or adding a shoulder style strap when I take this little number out on the town!

Because I don’t about you but I totally despise even the idea of having to carry my belongings in a clear bag to a basketball game or a play. How humiliating! I would so rather carry a stylish bag like this and still have room for a lipstick, & my phone!

And here’s some additional info you might like to have…

• This design is approved by both of my feline assistants, although I’m not so sure Tabitha liked the lining fabric I chose for this sample (based on the look on her face)!
• and pictured above at right are the cool zips I used for this sample (which are now part of our exclusive line). They blend with way more fabrics than you might think and you can find out more about them HERE!
