Passport Cover

I'm going to Mexico with the Husband at the end of the month and I decided to manifest my excitement, for finally needing to get a passport, with making a leather passport cover!!!

I ordered the leather online (Amazon) , bought some super cheap embroidery floss (Michales), and enlisted a friend who had a tool to help me punch holes in the leather.

After cutting the leather from a template from an existing passport holder a family member had, we used an awl to penetrate the leather so we could hand sew the pieces together. It took a little bit of practice before I got the look I wanted, but by the end, I loved this craft.

If anyone out there wants one, I'll gladly make another.... you just need to commission my art. THANKS!
