Pocket Pal PDF Sewing Pattern (Includes SVGs and video!)
This listing is for a DOWNLOADABLE PDF pattern only! If you want to make your own Pocket Pal, you're in the right place. You are NOT purchasing a completed wallet. By purchasing this pattern Linds Handmade LLC grants the purchaser a non-exclusive, non-transferable, simple right of use license to use the sewing pattern for personal or limited commercial use. The rights to reproduce, publish or distribute the sewing pattern in whole or in part, to allow third parties to use it, to edit it or to change it in any form is strictly prohibited. Commercial use is limited to individual brand sales and is prohibited for mass production or manufacturers.
With this purchase you will receive an instant download PDF pattern with full pattern pieces, detailed pictures, step by step instructions and FREE SVG files! (See note below**). This pattern is designed to be used with any self -healing material such as cork, leather, vinyl etc as the edges are left raw (with the option of using edge paint to finish off the edges.) Do NOT try making with cotton fabric!
**Unfortunately, we are unable to assist in trouble shooting with each and every cutting machine out there. Some machines auto-resize the pattern pieces and may require you to ungroup them and resize using the 1" test box provided for accuracy.
This is a beginner friendly pattern, but you should be comfortable with inserting zippers, and cutting & sewing accurately which will make all the difference in the overall end look since the edges are left raw. If you've never sewn with cork, vinyl or leather before, please read the "Tips & Tidbits" section carefully where we share our tips for sewing with these materials.
