The idea from Jana from Berlin:
I would like a leather wallet with a colourfully embroidered African pattern (see sample in the appendix). It would be nice if the leather is black and embroidered with red colours. The dimensions should be about 8×10 cm,
Inside, there should be: a coin pocket with snap fastener, a note pocket, and a few card pockets for up to 4-6 cards.

Hello, Walter,
Thank you for your photos. Do you also have the possibility to get another material? My favorite color is red and I would be happy if this color appears in the product. I sent you another photo of a bag whose colors and patterns I find very beautiful. Could you find something similar? Thank you very much!

Hi Walter, thanks for your suggestions. So far my favourite is the photo I attached again. The white fabric with yellow black patterns and a red circle. I would appreciate if you could provide another fabric option with a red pattern. If it is too difficult, then I would go for the one I attached. Thanks a lot.
