Description I made this while watching a ~EthePony embroidery livestream. It was kind of sad to see his awesome $1,000 embroidery machine to 15,000 stitches in the span of time it took me to do the 80 or so for this wallet... It was kind of awesome, though, to spent a Saturday night watching a dude embroider a pony over the Internet while simultaneously embroidering a pony 500 miles away. The future is here, folks!

(Also for you Europeans the commas denote thousands so his machine did fifteen thousand stitches not 15 with lots of accuracy.)

It was essentially a prototype on how hand embroidery works out on canvas wallets and, well, it worked out really well! The stitches held up to a day of constant use and generally Derpy is happy that you are using her to hold your muffin funds. Of course, whether you should trust her is another question...

I am going to be making more pony wallets for selling them on Etsy at some point. This one, though, is available right now as an auction! Check it out here: [link]

Embroidering on leather is not the best idea/thing in the world, which is why I used cotton instead. =0
