Our new Zori (Japanese old-fashioned shoes) wallet




From the right side, it could look like just footwear and actually it is a wallet. It is also good to keep some private things in this wallet because people would have no clue whether it is shoe or wallet!! The zipper is just 10cm long! The shortest zipper we can find in the world.

This wallet will be out not too far from now.

Happy quilting
