I don't have an iPhone

I don't think I'll get one, simply because I prefer a larger screen.

Made this cellphone sleeve from cotton linen. That is becoming the fabric of choice recently. I like it's texture. If you remember the red bus tote? That has the nicest texture I've come across for this fabric, even nicer than Nesshome! 

Have a blessed morning!

Simple florals

This is my last piece of PU leather and snap. I've bought more but it takes so long to arrive that I'm wondering if I'll try to make my own. But that means I'll have to do the snaps myself and the tool for my snaps have yet to arrive, LOL!

Cellphone sleeve made from the Cath Kidston lookalike material. It's a bit like oilcloth, or maybe it really is. Just reminds me of that 'cos of the prints and texture. Lined this with super soft dimpled microfibre. I was thinking of saying that it's large enough to fit DD's Samsung Galaxy Ace but it seems lots of phones are getting larger. To think that someone once laughed at my Nokia e61i.

Have a blessed day!

Jelly roll series

I decided to concentrate on this range of cottons. After making these, I still have 1 more jelly roll that I forgot about, LOL! These were made with half the width of a jelly roll strip, actually. Narrower than a honey bun strip. Fun to sew, nevertheless. I still have a list of some other items to make but I thought I'd just post this update first.

More details on Facebook!

ps: A jelly roll is made up of strips of fabric 2.5" wide x width of fabric.

pps: I like the drawstring bag the most. It's not interfaced (padded) yet it's not too floppy since the strip of fabric basically doubled up behind so effectively, there are 3 layers of fabric.

Have a blessed day!

Ring, ring!

I forgot to blog about this.

Sometimes I blog first, sometimes I post on Facebook first. For this cellphone pouch, I posted it on Facebook and clean forgot to blog about it here, LOL!

I received a pack of cotton linen recently and this piece was large enough for a cellphone pouch so I decided to make one. It's Hansel and Gretel's candy house. I machine-quilted it and added a leather mounted snap. You can't see from this pic but the inside is white polka dots on green.

Have a blessed day!

How big is your phone?

In this day and age, the phones are getting larger. What a far cry from the time when I was using my trusty Nokia e61i which was ahead of its time. It was larger than most candy bars or clamshells. Thick too, that some would laugh when I put it to my ear and use it like a super wide candy bar. Well, the phones these days are much larger :-)

Made from a suede-like material and lined with microfibre. Velcro closure 'cos no magnets. Belt loop at the back.

Have a blessed day!

Snap to it!

I placed an order for snap pliers recently but I'm anxious for it to arrive. My new toy. I've made these in anticipation and I think this pile will grow as the days go by without the postperson bringing my parcel. I've pencil cases, wallets, cellphone sleeve, earpiece pouches and such. LOL! More pics when the snaps are here :-)
Have a blessed weekend!
ps: ya, ya, I know, I already have snaps. But those are metal ones. Those coming are resin snaps. Well, and some metal ones too :-)
