{Compère} unisex wallet pattern
Compère is a unisex wallet for men, women and teens !
Compère is practical and compact, with 3 credit card slots and 5 pockets, including 2 patch pockets, 1 flap with 2 clear pockets (French ID format) and a small zippered coin purse with bellows, for easy access to its contents.
2 sizes : Small for a pocket size wallet and Medium to fit a passport.
Optional tab closure with snap.
Dimensions Compère Small closed : height 13 cm (5 1/8″) x width 9 cm (3 5/8″).
Dimensions Compère Medium closed : height 15 cm (6″) x width 10.5 cm (4 1/8″).
Level : Intermediate – Like for its big brother, the Complice wallet pattern, the assembly of Compère requires care and precision.
The lining, ie the entire inner part of the wallet must be made of thin cotton (quilting cotton type).
The black Compère with green polka dots lining is a size M. Its exterior is luxury cork (not interfaced). The cork tab was too thick to install my snap (which did not have a long stem) so I made the tab out off the green cotton lining fabric (interfaced).
The Blue Compère is also a size M, in denim style cotton (interfaced). It is coordinated with the Jive “teen girl” bag pictured above.
The cork Compère is a size S, its exterior is a cork fabric with silver sprinkles (not interfaced), its cotton lining is the Adelajda Liberty print.
