I'm really sorry it didn't work out for you - perhaps make a template of a credit card, or use an old one, and sew around it when you try again. 1/28/07 9:37 AM
said... I think I caused the problem by using the wider bias tape. I fused the tape down with stitch witchery prior to sewing it. If I hadn't done that I would remove the bias tape and start over again. I really don't write checks anymore for purchases, either. I use my debit card but, I do like having the check register with me to make entries when I'm out. I've decided I will carry the wallet and just put what few credit cards I use in one of the other places. It's too nice to just toss it. 1/28/07 12:04 PM
