Billfolds
FIG. 102 SHOWS open and closed views of the billfolds described and illustrated. Although these projects have been arranged in the order of their difficulty, the first billfold has proved to be the most popular.
The tooling designs in the Design section are so flexible that any initial or monogram may be suitably arranged either on the design itself or on that portion of the billfold not decorated.
Fig. 102. Billfolds
The second and third billfolds involve sewing by machine and are rather difficult to sew unless one practices with the machine prior to this operation. However, if care is exercised, the craftsman need have no hesitancy about making any of these billfolds.
The double-fold billfold is a very elaborate one which has a retail cost many times that which the novice need pay for the material.
