I'm getting on the Kindle Cover bandwagon!
I had no idea how to make a Kindle Cover so I made a practice cover with scrap fabrics first before cutting into my favorite fabrics! I knew I wanted a hard cover, corner triangles, and an elastic band to hold it closed, the only thing I didn't know was how to put them all together!
Here is the result of some serious sewing engineering!:
 |
| Elastic closure |
 |
| Black and Lime Green Chevron and Text Fabrics |
 |
| Front cover is a fabric covered 5x7 paint canvas that protects the Kindle when it's rolling around in my purse and the corners hold it in when reading |
 |
| I added a pocket to the front cover |
 |
| There are 2 layers of batting in the back of the cover to offer protection |
This was pretty easy to put together after my first practice round. I'm happy with it so far!
Wishing you big waves and an artful day!

ReplyDeleteMerci! Only 8 days until departure (not that I'm counting)!
DeleteI love your kindle cover! The text print is great, it looks like it fits your kindle perfectly. Nicely done! I need to fix mine--too big.
ReplyDeleteThanks Kate! It fits really well, the only thing is that the white fabric was not the best choice, starting to turn a little gray! But I'm happy with the design overall!
