Another approach would be to use iron on repair fabric, but folder over the top to give a good strong edge. Normally this is used to repair holes in jeans etc. It's normally available in at least blue, black and white, and just need a warm/hot iron.

# Repair divider in wallet

(Asked by: username_0 on 2019-04-02)

I would like to repair or strengthen the divider in my wallet as shown here.

It kinda close quarters.

Part of the damage is caused when I close the zipper and catch the material.

It may not be pretty but...

I sewed the damaged material and used Gorilla glue to attach some leather pieces to both sides. The leather should protect it from the zipper rubbing against it.
