I did a pattern a while ago about this passport and card holder and realized I never filmed a video showing how to make it. In addition to the pdf pattern an acrylic template is also available now in the shop. Pdf pattern: https://am-leathercraft.com/collections/card-holders/products/passport-holder-patterns Acrylic templates: https://am-leathercraft.com/collections/acrylic-patterns/products/passport-holder-acrylic-patterns-free-shipping
A brand new stitching clam!
How to prep a brand new stitching clam I have just this brand new clam from the carpenter, I have given him an original Blanchard clam and asked him to copy it. I am showing you in the video below how to prep it, it always feels better to handle tools that you have personalized to your taste rather than the new ones straight from the store.

There is a bit more hand stitching involved and you will need a zipper, preferably with 3mm teeth rather than 5mm. I did not have any bottom nor top metal stoppers for the zipper so I had to replace them by leather bits,...
The making of an indispensable...
The bi-fold wallet is probably the most common type wallet for men, I bet pretty every men already owned at least one (if not dozens) like this one in their life. It fits in the back pocket of a trouser (this one is only 75mm high) and can carry everything you need without having to bring with you a bag. Don't take me wrong I love carrying a bag with me, but most guys don't like much to carry bags with them all the time and I understand why... I have already uploaded in the past a pattern on the website, but felt the necessity to make...
