Back in 2016 I'd purchased these gorgeous fabrics from Fiona's Fabrics in Woodbridge (the brand is A Spark of Happiness) and I'd used them to make a Sew Together Bag. The fabrics are quite wide and I had lots of leftlovers, which had been lovingly packed away waiting for another project...
...I decided to use some of them for a trial run of another ByAnnie pattern,a posh new coat for my Samsung tablet! I gathered a few of my bag-making supplies together - this bright green zipper by the metre from Zipper Station was just perfect to use with these bright fabrics - along with some snag-free Velcro fastening and a variegated KingTut quilting thread. The case was quilted very simply onto Soft and Stable bag wadding...
...the front of the case looks very smart, with machine stitched binding covering all of the raw edges...
...the back of the case has a zipper pocket...
...inside there is a slip pocket for my Samsung tablet, and the flap secures it with Velcro. It's a bit of a snug fit as I used some pieces of fabric that were already cut which were slightly smaller than the pattern suggested. Also, I've kept my tablet in it's protective hard case...
...well I absolutely LOVE my new tablet case! The pattern, iCases, was purchased from Plush Addict - the pattern includes instructions for making depending on the size of your electronic devise, however it would be simple to make it smaller or larger - I'm thinking about enlarging it to make a case for my lightpad!I'm going to make another one of these cases for my my husband as a birthday gift, also my sister-in-law was admiring mine, so I'll make one for her birthday too. Now I just need to find some appropriate fabrics and I'll make a start!
