New "Echo Bike Products" Wallets

New Wallet!

one of Echo Bike Products latest additions: a wallet within a still life comprised of inspirational objects!



Inside the wallet in progress, I've folded the credit card holder and basted it to the body

Here I am sewing the elastic button band onto the wallet body




The zipper installed on the inside pouch!

Now I'm sewing the binding onto the wallet and zipper pouch- there are a lot of littel steps but fortunately the wallet is small so it goes fast!

The finished wallet ready to be sold on ETSY!


This adorable wallet is one of the products Betsy and I are making for our new line of Hip Bicycle accessories. You can find more of them in our shop: www.etsy.com/shop/echobikeproducts

We'll have future postings of each new bag, t-shirt and headscarf to whet your appetite!
Check back soon!



Hankies!

These hankies are surprisingly sturdy and can  be washed in the machine!

Here's the back. I'm a pretty novice embroiderer, but I try to keep it neat! I love my rolled hem job though!

I love using hankies. They're especially great when I'm riding my bike and need something that will last through the commute and not disintegrate or fly away when I grab it out of my pocket! I have a few packets of Sublime Stitching embroidery patterns that I've been using to decorate squares of hand-hemmed cream linen. The one pictured above is almost done, it's my second one. The first one had a great bird on it but I accidentally left it somewhere while changing for work, rats! Hopefully someone who found it is enjoying it! I can't wait to make some more. Hankies will also be a feature in a cool new project that Dana and I are hatching. More details on that soon!
