Today is a very special day for me, so I wanted to do something very special for you to help me celebrate. My daughter, Samantha, just turned 16. For everyone who's been there themselves when they turned 16 or had a daughter who did, I'm sure you know how important that is.
So, we're going to do something special and make one of our popular paid patterns free for this weekend only. Yes, that's right, FREE. As long as you download it on Craftsy this weekend, it will be free for you forever. After this weekend, the pattern will go back on sale at $6.95.
Many readers would be sort of familiar with Samantha as she's kind enough to do most of the modeling for me. (I find it hard to take pictures of myself.) You may recall this popular design and free sewing pattern for the Bell Sleeve Top.
Going away somewhere exotic or far-afield? Or maybe you just need somewhere to keep your passports and travel documents safe between trips so you’ll always know where to lay your hands on them.
This essential family travel and passport wallet pattern can hold travel documents for a family and speed you through check in and security without having to rummage through bags to find everything.
Features of the Travel and Passport Wallet
This handy travel and passport wallet pattern has:
- Two short pockets for ID cards, credit card etc
- Two medium pockets for your passports
- Two larger pockets for boarding passes or e-tickets
- Two large pockets behind for other documents or extra passports
- An elastic pen holder
- Optional clip to hold locker or luggage keys
- Sturdy design
- Loop and button closure
- Finished size approx – 9.5 inches tall, by 5.5 inches wide, by 0.75 inches deep
Happy Birthday Samantha. This birthday is the introduction of many milestones in your life. Many thanks for your birthday gift to me – fabulous gesture. Already got the thinking cap on which fabrics to use. When I went to download, I got another pattern as well – the Folded Shopping Bag. An extra bonus and real reason to celebrate. Blessings

Happy birthday Samantha!! This pattern is just what I have been looking for – I usually make my own patterns – but also love to use ones created by others. I travel a lot and my present travel wallet is ready for replacement. Will make this on my return from my up coming trip.
