How to Make a Leather Long Wallet (PATTERN!)
The leather long wallet is a staple design in any leather crafter's project list. This version of our leather long wallet is a choose your own adventure project that can be made in dozens of different ways! We used 3oz natural vegetable tanned leather to make this 8" leather long wallet that has 6 credit card slots, two bill slots, and holds a check book - but how will you make yours? Maybe a zipper pouch, maybe some saddle stitch detail? We look forward to seeing your DIY leather long wallet designs!

old content, but just picked up the pack to make a new wallet for my wife! My first project was a long wallet for her and it's time to upgrade after the last 3 years of small crafts! Thanks for keeping the pattern packs alive!

[@kingjgregory]

Made one of these with the zip pouch for the Mrs. She loves it and has gotten compliments on it out and about. She sometimes just carries it as a clutch too. 👍🏽 Love it!

[@ErikGuin]

I picked up your pattern for the last womens wallet you made with the zipper pocket and it turned out great!!! I've only been leathercrafting for about a year now, and i have to say thank you for making these videos. It really helps us noobies. Helps give some guidance, and its much appreciated!

[@shirleymalar2773]

I second that!!!

Nice looking wallet! enjoy the narrated videos, I always learn something that I can use towards my own projects, so thank you!

[@AlexandraFraser679]

Thank you so much for the detailed explanation - so helpful!!

[@johnnguyen7171]

Just downloaded and can’t wait to make different versions of this long wallet. Thank you for all you do.

Love the new format with you chatting through the video, giving tips etc. Great work. 👍👍

Fenomenal piece. Keep doing marvelous pieces and video for us. I love it

[@michaels2208]

Those video is from a while ago but I totally feel that this is actually easier than the bifold. I made the 9 pocket bi for my brother. Then his wife had a wallet and asked if I could make her a longer one. Thanks for the content and support.

[@chrisparsley511]

Another Great Video By Corter Leather. I am always excited about watching the next new video.

[@susantipsyhealy7655]

You are good people and great teachers. I was trying to decide on remaking a 25 yoa long wallet I had purchased. But it used cardboard liners for CC slot slits . Will purchase your pattern and learn more about wallet making. Thank you

[@michaelsipe9010]

Great video! Thank you for the content.

[@anabazalar5887]

¡Excelentes patrones! 🤗 Ya los tengo, compré el PDF de la Billetera larga Universal y se puede jugar con los diferentes modelos que se pueden crear! Me encanta cada modelo que podré hacer con estos patrones! Gracias Corter por tan grandiosa idea! 💡 Manos a la obra! Saludos desde Lima - Perú 🇵🇪

Awesome lesson on skiving. TY

awesome cant wait to start pass these out as gifts

[@garrycrobbins]

I love this pattern. Made so many wallets with this. Still need to do a lining yet. Tried once but wasn’t very good

[@mjaf]

going to try this. thanks for sharing.

[@Maxvilla273]

Thanks a lot, your video is great as always

[@TonyThian]

Really nice pattern

[@vanessakitty8867]

Beautiful pattern. TY. I want to make this as a double zip wallet. Twice as big with two sides exactly like these.

[@Corter]

that'd be so much storage! Go for it!

[@2kidsnosleep]

Great tips, good looking wallet. Will have a go at skiving practice and I think it is time I replace some clunky Tandy tools as well (edger beveled for eg). Subscribed👍🏻

[@asanali2009]

I will make this wallet without a pattern. It is enough for me to look at it and I will make it according to the size of the currency of my country. Thank you for the video

[@RoknRolUSA]

I could do the same but i bought a pattern to support his channel, i like his videos.

[@Twelvetoeleven]

Bought it 🖤

[@manucruz4664]

Olá manu, tenho esse modelo pronto disponivel

[@shaun_doe4854]

Great content😍 can you do a skiving tutorial of your best methods???

[@danhunik7949]

Take a trip to home depot`s tool section and find an oscillating spindle sander. This should be a cheaper option than the ower slicker with the drum sander. I use one and it works great.

Translated to the Arabic If your videos allowed more than wonderful and I would love to benefit more greetings to you from Egypt🇾🇪

[@aliasaka4416]

Great Video! Can you tell us how thick the leather you used was ?

[@lorimontcalm9086]

I was hoping to see how you come up with the measurements, like taking the size of bills and cards adding ease and seam allowances. So one step before this. Nice video even though it wasn't what I was hoping.

[@loki71183]

Great job, you explanations are crystal clear. However, if it is possible I would enjoy that you offer an edit with just the making and no narration, the old way sort of. Don't get me wrong, I really like your tips and tricks, but it is a little long sometimes and it's nice to just see a work well executed without anything else in the way. Have a good day if you happen to see that comment.

[@ericl9696]

Nice wallet! What brand of contact cement do you use to stick the leather pieces together? Is it customized for leather? Thanks!

[@RoknRolUSA]

I bought a pattern to support your channel.

[@TheTryHardDad]

When you stitch up that center line... how did you get your prickling iron to punch the holes evenly. Like it didn’t fall in a weird position on the pockets.

[@user-ix8ow5fo4i]

Очень и интересно смотреть

[@MrLombardi]

Niiice nice!!!! When would you have the chance to make my one?

[@anjelahcampos5112]

Love the wallet, could not find the pattern in the link. Help!

[@3AsianBoi]

Can you make a tutorial on edge paint?

[@joseponcedeleon6987]

Which is the optimal leather thickness ?? I’ve never found it in the material list. Thanks

[@therealblurrybarber]

What can I do to combat those wrinkles? Or is it going to mostly depend on the leather?

[@lalibellulegrise]

Thanks a lot for this. I notice in the final shots some puckering at the fold line on the inside. I've had that problem too in the past, when I've lined the inside of wallets. Any advice for preventing that? Your glue up seems super thorough, and like it covers the entire area very well. So is it a case of getting the two sheets to fold only very progressively? Thanks.

[@Corter]

We just used pretty thick lining leather - you'd want to go thinner, possibly use a french skiver on that 2" center. You can also glue it while it's slightly folded to clue in that bend as well, but as it is that puckering should wear in and go away over time :)

[@lalibellulegrise]

@@Corter Thanks. That's very useful.

[@drewmeyerhoeffer467]

The solution is to glue it on a curve. Remember, if the lining is glued flat but then the pieces are bent, the inside piece will create a smaller radius curve from bending then the outer because it is traveling a slightly smaller distance (tighter curve). But since it's glued, it can't create that smaller radius curve (it's stuck to the outside), so it just puckers. Glue on a rounded 45 degree and you probably wouldn't have this issue. A cheap solution, when glueing, make contact with a 1/3 of the item flat, then the second third while wrapping around a rolling pin or can of Pam, etc. Then the final third flat again. Cut excess off inner piece.

[@lorddiablo8575]

Do you make anything with Sheep-nappa instead of veg-tan leather ?? I really look forward to ....

[@mamamia980]

I know you previously mentioned that you don't reallw use sewing machines. Have you ever thought of trying it to improve production speed? cool video BTW I really like the videos where you speak and go through the project.

[@Corter]

If we do contract work that's machine sewn we outsource to a factory, I've got no interest in machine sewing because I love hand sewing :) We have streamlined our process for most of our stock items with cutting dies that we can spend the time hand sewing to keep the cost down

[@mamamia980]

@@Corter ok cool 👏👏. could you do a leather brecelet tutorial.

[@syahrulismail2184]

where did you buy the pricking iron?

[@pspy1806]

is anyone here got tips to avoid the wrinkles at the fold? should i put reinforcement paper on the other side or maybe i should glue the outer shell while folded? thank you..

[@sfkid57]

I am a little confused which is pretty normal, what is the Measurement of the outer shell?not good with math. A downloaded your pattern and I'm just trying to figure that out. With metric I have 20 mm Please help.

[@samanthawarner8712]

What is your stitch seam allowance?

[@losvelez7235]

How many xacto blades do you go through in a project like this one?

[@Corter]

usually just 1 :)

[@jerrycallender7604]

What is the benefit of the convex pocket? Haven't seen this before.

[@Corter]

Just a design detail that works nice with the pocket shapes :)

[@jerrycallender7604]

@@Corter Thanks. I've always enjoyed your videos and I'm getting ready to begin working with leather... I work with fabrics and always use leather for the bottoms of tote bags and wantin' to expand.

I bought some veg tan bellies from weaver, but the inner side looks really rough for any project. Just wondering how do you deal with this kind of problem.

I mean...simply don't buy bellies. Unfortunately they're cheap for a reason.
