Sew a Faux Leather Coin Purse/Mini Wallet with a Snap Closure

Faux leather is durable, lightweight and easy to clean. You can get several different types of faux fabric for a variety of projects. Try sewing this coin purse as an addition to a handbag, or sew to go along with a card holder. You can find that tutorial in my playlist.

I knew I found the perfect faux leather wallet....thank you again

[@cocasio7190]

Thank you Nikki!

[@lynetterene]

First time finding you tonight. I love this project.....thank you!

[@SewnByNikki]

You are so welcome!

Thanks for the tutorial. I had just made a small gift card wallet today and I have the same snap kit. The snap kit did not come with instructions just photo's so this was helpful watching you use the took kit.

Hi. I went to your blog but did not see this pattern. Where can I get this pattern?

[@mz.mickey3386]

Hello,where did you get the silver parts to make the hole in the leather Tia

[@pamelaleitman9305]

Why do you sew over the fold line? Curious.

[@sjhhomecollections]

Hi! You said a pattern would be available. I cant locate it. Please advise.

[@SewnByNikki]

I had it on the blog for a short amount of time. You can create a simple rectangle; approximately 6 x 12 - then cut the edges to create the angles. Project takes less than 20 minutes.

@@SewnByNikki Thank you!

[@lindawolanin6790]

I did cut faux leather 6x12 and it is way too big. Any other suggestions?

[@nanisbeautycreations884]

I dont own a sewing machine, can I sew it by hand with a needle and thread?

[@SewnByNikki]

Faux is versatile. I would say yes. To make it easier however, I would mark a line with a tracing tool so you don't mess up. Once you poke a hole in this material, it will stay!

[@ericksanchez7124]

Hello Nikki, is the Brother CE1125PRW a good machine to do this kind of job, with faux leather?

[@SewnByNikki]

I use my Teflon foot on this Brothet machine. It can be done. Just use a new needle and put your stitch length at about 3.0 or 3.5.

[@MrsTerry2001]

Can you do this with a regular needle?

[@SewnByNikki]

Yes. I used a new universal one.

[@Love.Yourself.1976]

Why didn't you sew the O ring piece inside the pouch?

[@SewnByNikki]

It was just something different than I always do... to give it a different look. I mentioned that it could be sewed inside like in my other videos.... It doesn't affect the quality of the tab in place.

[@kamarajones5031]

Where did you get the kit for the snap you put on the wallet

[@SewnByNikki]

Amazon. It is about a 150 piece kit..... I prefer to shop small, from small businesses, but when I need supplies in bulk, certain places are a must! : )

[@shellymartinez7806]

Do I have heavy duty needle

[@SewnByNikki]

Should you? I use a brand new universal needle sometimes but using a heavy duty, or a leather needle is good to do.
