How to choose a suitable fabric...just a Q not a tutorial

I made a card wallet last night (before I console my self by sewing the cloth pad)
I made a mistake (AGAIN!) in choosing the right fabric for it
It turn out to be so ugly... sila focus pada bahagian tepi tuh mmg dah tak boleh jahit dah.. sebab terlalu tebal. I used heavy cotton... previously (didnot show in any posting) I used light/medium cotton, it turn out to be so 'lembik' (the card insert area)... should i attach interfacing ke pada card insert tuh?

At last i donate to this place...(GGRRRRRR)
Please help me :-(

    rasanya better untuk poket insert tu, better pki medium cotton/lightweight fabrik ngan interfacing sekali. just my opinion lah...

    cuba kalau designer cotton, sure tak donate kat ‘tempat’ tu kan... i think learn from experience is invaluable. now u know u cannot mix n match two heavy cotton together. akak pun dah try n failed miserably, tapi tak bakul sampahkan pun. Jadi UFO (UnFinished Object) kalau wallet, pakai medium weight or quilt cotton is OK. nak nampak kemas, pakai medium weight interface. My 2 cent worth...

    mila. cuba kecilkan sikit basi kain tu, boleh tgk french seam. bila basi kain tu kecil, so taklah tebal nak jahit...

    skin letak double heavy weight interfacing. so kalo gne cotton biasa pon boley hehe pastu pastikan interfacing tuh kecik lg size dr kain. so bile flip xdela tebal sgt.. n bhgn bucu.. potong sket..

    jangan buang...! ;D
    boleh adjust lagi tu. kalau saya, saya guna heavy cotton untuk luaran, dalam lining dengan light cotton.. kalau guna light/ medium light cotton for both, baru letak interfacing. aa yang ni tetas, buat lain. nangis woo dia letak dalam tong ni..
