I want to thank you SO much for joining me in the Sewing Wallets: Step by Step class.  I’m really delighted to sew along with you.  I appreciate that there was a lot to share in the class in a very limited time and not all of your questions might have been answered, so this page will become our class database of information for things like hardware, interfacing, fabric and frequently asked questions. There’s a LOT here so keep on scrolling down….

First off, let’s get all the links out of the way.  If you really loved one of those fabrics you glimpsed, wanted to know what is your local equivalent of the interfacing I used, or need to know where I bought my hardware, you can find it all here.
