DIY Badge Holder with Tracker Charm – easy sewing tutorial
Convention season is gearing up, and what better way to show off your style than with a custom badge holder? With fabric scraps left over from cosplay or quilting projects, you can coordinate a custom badge to match your outfit. As a bonus, Jennifer at WeAllSew also designed a cute tracker charm for peace of mind in case a bag gets misplaced in the convention hall.
Convention season is upon us, and Jennifer’s badge holder is exactly the kind of project that uses up your stash beautifully. The bonus tracker charm is a clever touch — peace of mind plus a chance to coordinate with your outfit. The leather work looks intimidating, but it’s all straight-line stitching.
