New Style Large Phone Wristlet

Posted in Fresh From My Sewing Machine, and Peeking Behind the Seam

I’ve been making large phone clutches and wristlets for years. I recently came across a fun pattern that I like a lot. It is very similar to ones I make, but has a few extras that bring the wristlet to another level.

This is the Tracy Wristlet by Lind’s Homemade Design and it is a fun update to my collection. This wristlet has a very cool feature on the back:

There are two d rings sewn in and riveted to the backside of the wristlet. It allows for a wristlet strap or adding a shoulder or crossbody strap to the bag.

This blue daises cotton canvas bag has both a wristlet strap as well as a matching shoulder strap. You can switch between either strap length, making the bag so versatile!

A pretty gold chain crossbody strap would be perfect on this bag! The other thing I liked about this bag is the inside double pocket. The slip pocket has card slots as well as a place for your cash. There is a zipper pocket inside as well.

I like the wider dimensions of the bag as well – it will fit more stuff while still being a small bag. It is large enough for any size phone.

You can find several of these wristlets in my Etsy shop already to ship. There are several more in progress as well!

Detailing Update on My Smartphone Wristlets

Posted in Fresh From My Sewing Machine, and Peeking Behind the Seam

This beautiful purple lilacs phone wristlet is the newest wristlet listed on my Etsy shop . I’ve adjusted my wristlet sizes to accommodate the current regular phone sizes. This will fit the iPhone 15, Samsung Galaxy S24, Pixel 8, and phones up to 6.25″ x 3.25″ .

The newer phones are the same width but are longer then earlier versions. I had some wristlets on my shop that no longer fit the new longer lengths. I have removed them from the shop.

I’ve looked at other bagmaker’s phone wristlets and have noticed zippers, and magnet closures. I’ve decided to stay with the velcro for people who prefer no magnets near their phone or credit cards, and for those who don’t want to fuss with a small zipper.

The velcro I use is heavy duty, and is triple sewn into the bag and fold over tab. I have customers who have been using their phone wristlets for years before they need are larger one for a new phone. The wristlets hold up well and the velcro is still working great.

The other thing that is different with my phone wristlets is I use satin as the lining. Years ago when I first designed this wristlet, I noticed cotton makes it harder to get your phone out or even pulls up with the phone. The satin lets you easily slide your phone in and out with ease. I continue to use the satin for that reason.

I have two more wristlets finished, waiting to be listed. Here’s a sneak peek:

The seashell and the mushroom wristlets will be listed this week. Enjoy!

Halloween Wristlets

Posted in Fresh From My Sewing Machine, and Sewing: Finished Bags & Pouches

This fun pumpkins and jack-o-laterns wristlet will fit the regular sized iPhone 14 and phones up to 6.25 inches. It is the same adorable fabric as the longer wristlet from a previous post.

One of my customers picked out this fabric for a custom order. I purchase the fabric for my customers for custom orders. It’s much easier for everyone and streamlines the process of custom orders. I often have left over fabric from the orders. I just love this cute fabric and had enough leftover for a few phone wristlets. I purchased this fabric from CopaGorda on Etsy I believe the fabric is from StudioE, “Small pumpkins”

This cute wristlet has little white and orange ghosts on orange fabric. It will fit the regular sized iPhone 13 & 14 and other phones up to 6.25 inches. This fabric is one I picked along the way on my travels. It’s a Dear Stella fabric and just so fun. These adorable Halloween wristlets are posted today on my shop and really for purchase. Enjoy!
