The wallet that led to the creation of my YouTube channel

When I started sewing, one of the first pieces I made was a wallet following a tutorial from the Sewing Times channel. It turned out a bit wonky, the zipper on the central pocket wasn’t great, but I still used it for a while. In the beginning, one of my biggest challenges was visualizing the position of the different parts of a project. The fact that we sew with the wrong side facing out and then turn everything right side out took a while to make sense to me — and even today, every now and then, I get confused and end up sewing on the wrong side.

3‑in‑1 Bag — a new version - crossbody / tote / backpack
