The Day Tripper 2.0 By Annie
Do you have a favorite focus fabric you have been saving but aren't sure what you want to use this treasured fabric on?
Well look no further than the The Daytripper 2.0 By Annie! This is a sturdy padded case that can be used to carry your tablet, iPad, or other electronic devices. Instructions are included for a zipper at the top for extra protection of your gear. There is also a padded zippered pocket on the front of the bag that can hold your cords and chargers and inside is a slip pocket that would be perfect for that smart phone! Instructions are included to make a strap that can be used over the shoulder or cross-body - you choose! Finished size is as follows: The finished case measures 11”W x 11½”H x 2”D.

The Greenbacks Wallet Trio is a pattern that has three separate wallet patterns in the same pattern with three different skill levels! Build your experience level with different techniques, or choose your favorite wallet and start with that! This wallet pattern has the following features:
  • Wallet #1 features 4 credit card slots on the front, and a back zippered enclosure, which is great for holding your cash and credit cards. Grab and go convenience!
  • Wallet #2 is a great carry-all wallet with a wrist strap and front closure. If you flip the wallet over to the back, there is a handy pocket secured in place with a snap that will fit many cell phone sizes. Open the wallet up, and inside is a divider space with room for credit cards on one half, and cash and receipts on the other half.
  • Wallet #3 has a zip closure, and bias binding on the outer edges of the wallet. The showcase of this wallet is the accordion divider on the inside, which has a zippered pouch divider, and credit card and cash slots on each end. The wallet does not open flat, which will safely keep all your valuables contained inside. Hand sewing is involved to attach the binding to the edge of the wallet (I sewed my entire binding, front and back, by hand, although some areas are possible to sew on your machine). Very functional, and just as pretty on the inside as it is on the outside!
