Essential Wristlet




Made some wristlets for presents  from the Essential Wristlet pattern by Dog Under My Desk, except that  the pattern was purchased here, on a sale.
 
Description:  PDF pattern for wristlets in 2 sizes with a regular bottom (as shown in the pics) or boxed bottom.  There is also an option of adding a zippered pocket to one outer side.

Fabric:  quilting cotton from stash

Interfacing:  fused with Presto (woven cotton fusible) and used sew-in  fleece interfacing for interlining

Notions:  zipper (I used 9" which was shortened), D-ring and swivel hook from Tantalizing Stitches or their etsy shop.

Pattern has detailed step by step instructions with tons of pictures. It has a great method for sewing the zipper, so you don't have "crushed in" corners, and the strap finishing instructions are great. Because I was using quilting scraps, I only made the small size.

Made the inside pocket a bit different on this one:
