The tutorial is quite easy to understand althogh if you're a dumbass like me you might need some extra fabric and patience, lol. I think this is my third try, I started with 2 camera casings first. I strongly recommend to cut out a pattern from your measurements. I just wrote mine up and thought I'd transfer it to the fabric, but when I cut out the fabric I noticed I had forgotten seamallowence around the flapcorners or something like that. If you make a pattern in paper you can put your phone/camera on it and see if it makes sense.
Anyhee, here's what I came up with, pretty discreet. I finished it yesterday by sewing on the last velcro (on the flap). Sometimes that's all I have left on a project and it can be laying unfinished for months (or years, *cough*)
I'm thinking about adding the little bow. It won't be practical, but much cuter. What do you think?
I love the black/pink combo. I chose the outer fabric to be dark so it wouldn't attract too much attention. I know it's not that flashy phone, but it's mine and I don't want to get it stolen because it shows too much, right?
Just to clarify: this is made out of fabric :)
Very nice! Personally I think it looks great without the bow, but that's just me :)
ReplyDeletethat is really cute!
ReplyDeletei love the simple polkadot paper and that it is dark. it really is something i would use too.

ReplyDeleteThank you for entering my candy. good luck. hugs rachxx
lovely cell phone cosy!
ReplyDeleteyou asked about the lining: I always cut the lining the same sitze as the exterior, but I change the needle position while sewing, so the lining turns out a tiny little bit smaller than the exterior. this way there's no bulk. 1mm at each seam will do the trick ;)
It's a fab idea and it is lovely, i wouldn't mind one :) I am so useless at sewing.
