Leather Selection
This project was created with 3 oz. Wickett And Craig Buck Brown Harness Leather. I highly suggest something under 5 oz. Remember, you will be layering 3 pieces of leather at the attachment site. You have to take this stacking into consideration before ordering your snaps or button studs. Measure and make sure you have enough clearance. You can always skive down where the button stud/ snaps are stacked for a sleeker fit.

Love the simplicity!
Your link no longer works for the no sew card holder.
Which one did you try? I just tested both and they seem to be working on my end.
Tried just now, and they worked. I am thinking it was a problem on Google Drive’s end. After I commented, I tried a couple others. Nothing would work. Now, it does.
Thank you so much for the pattern!
