With this purchase you will receive an instant download PDF pattern with full pattern pieces, detailed pictures, and step by step instructions on how to make your own minimalist wallet clutch. This pattern is designed to be used with any self-healing textile such as cork, leather, vinyl etc as some edges are left raw on the interior portion of the bag. You may use fabric for the exterior in order to show off a feature fabric but Do NOT try making the whole thing with cotton fabric!
This is an intermediate pattern in that it uses advanced bag making techniques that require the sewer to have a general familiarity with bag making. This is not recommended for someone brand new to sewing. You should be comfortable using a quilting ruler and rotary cutter or sharp knife (ie box cutter or X-acto knife) for cutting straight lines.

I love this pattern, using the faux leather and my cotton canvas to make a very sweet bag. I’m not fond of large bags and this is compact as well as stylish. Thank you for this clever pattern
It is a downloaded pattern, download was easy, haven't had a chance to make it yet.
Great service and great patterns
Easy to read well explained
I made this as a gift for a friend. I may have to make one for me. I used an upholstery fabric for the exterior and pocket liners. I won't do the pockets out of anything that thick again. I should have followed the pattern there. Overall a good fun sew.
I watched this bag on a video by OklaRoots, it was really easy and makes up really well. I have made 4 already and plan to make more for the family. If unsure, give it a go, you will be really pleased with the result.
