I recently purchased and downloaded this amazing pattern! This designer- quality wallet looks pretty intimidating, but like every Sallie Tomato pattern I have made, the directions make it a breeze! Don’t be afraid of making this one- you can do it!
Thank you so much, Kim! We’re thrilled to hear how much you’re loving the Bella pattern. It really does have that designer‑quality look, and we’re so glad the instructions made it feel completely doable. Your encouragement means a lot—this is definitely a “you can do it” project! When you finish your wallet, we’d love to see it. Feel free to share photos in our Sallie Tomato Patterns & Hardware Facebook group. Thanks for sewing with us!
This was tricky in parts to make, but easy in other ways, and the result was a beautiful wallet (excuse the topstitching, as I was having trouble with my machine!). I am currently making another as I type this review.
Thank you so much for your thoughtful review of the Bella Wallet! We love hearing and seeing --that the final result was beautiful—and that you’re already diving into another one as you write. That’s the kind of creative momentum we adore!
It’s totally okay that some parts felt tricky—wallets can be a fun challenge, and your persistence is inspiring. And no worries at all about the topstitching; we’ve all been there with a stubborn machine!
Thanks again for your support and happy stitching!
I thought this was going to be super complicated but it wasn't as bad as I thought.
Thank you so much, Renae! We're thrilled to hear the Bella purse turned out to be a great size and easier than expected. It’s always a win when a project feels more approachable than anticipated! We love your rendition of the Bella and using multiple fabric combinations. Your feedback will definitely inspire other makers to give it a try. Happy sewing! ✨

Hey friend! I'm Jess, the Founder of Sallie Tomato. I originally opened my shop in 2014 during college. I began by selling items that I had sewn myself. It wasn’t until 2016 that I released my first pattern, the Puppy Pillow. Now, my passion is to design quality sewing patterns, so you can create too!
Sallie Tomato provides sewing patterns, purse hardware, handbag zippers, cork fabric, and select sewing supplies for bag making.
The name of my shop developed around my middle name, Sallie. Also, the tomato pin cushion is a well-recognized symbol of sewing. Thank you for visiting my website!
