Finally, the card-holder! Probably made with a variation on saddle stitch where I sewed first one side, then the other. Sewn with cotton yarn, not very elegant haha. It can hold 4 cards comfortably on each side.

And this is how it compares to the notebook holder I've shown before

Ah, been waiting on this one! As Actionjbone has said it's a great little project, fits perfectly its intended purpose, so I'd just say congratulation!

For the next one, maybe get proper thread, it'd be much more durable and would make it look more like traditional leatherwork.

Looking forward to seeing your take at the madamesew pattern! Are you planning on mixing leather and fabric for this project?

Yes, I finally posted it haha. Thank you!

I definitely need proper thread for my next project. I'm actually considering having fabric for the inside dividers/pockets, but we'll see. I might still have some thin and soft leather so that might work. We'll see :D
