Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I designed a little travel organizer for me, because I always had trouble to get all the documents together in one wallet. We like to travel around and never stay in one place longer than 3 days, so we have a lot of flight documents, hotel reservations, rental car vouchers and so on.
The travel organizer is folded twice, so everything stays in place. There are compartments for passports and two compartments for papers, usual they have the size of printer paper which is folded together, that is also matching the size (length) of boarding passes.
The closure is out of leather, it is a simple leather stripe which you fix around the organizer and then make a little bow.
After testing the organizer I have to admit, the leather closure looks very nice but it’s not really convenient, the next time I will use a snap instead.
