How to sew a cover for your phone from the felt

Smartphones – a very fragile thing. If you have this gadget, you have any idea how dangerous it can be for a casual kick him touch panel. Therefore, many are special covers that protect your phone screen from scratches and damage.

In this article I will discuss how one kill two birds with one stone: to provide protection for your smartphone and get a nice cover handmade by . By the way, it is a stupid expression, I always feel so sorry for these poor nor innocent birds. Well, okay, let’s get to the point.

Sew bag made of felt with their hands

Proceedings approximately as follows:

1. Create a template. To do this, cut around the outline with a pencil phone on cardboard, then add another 5 mm.

2. Cut two felt template details. Felt better to take a dense and resistant to wear and tear, as cover will always travel with you in your bag or pocket and a product of poor quality felt quickly will become worthless.

3. Similarly, we cut two other parts, this time from the normal tissue. This lining will be placed inside the cover and touch the screen, so you should choose a soft cloth for her.

4. On a piece of paper corresponding to the size of the pattern, draw it will look like the front side cover. I chose as decorative elements “Paisley” pattern (also known as “Indian cucumber” or “boot”).

5. Cut the felt of different colors, but the same density of six such “cucumber”.

6. sew them to the front side of the workpiece, each stitch decorating beads corresponding color. Threads can be used as usual (color) and special. But you definitely need the needles are special – some who easily pass through the hole beads. They are sold whole sets in needlework shops.

7. To decorate each “cucumber” I used sequins.

8. Along the perimeter bead embroidered track and between the space between the “gherkin” adorned with beads.

9. Now Accepted for making the inside of the cover of felt . An important role is played here by the tape, with which the phone is removed from the case. First on the satin ribbon 1 cm wide sewn a piece of felt , for which it will be convenient to undertake. You can cut it into droplets, square, circle, heart, etc.

10. Then, in billets lining fabric cut out holes as shown in the photo, and sheathe them to the fabric is not drizzled.

11. that the workpiece where the hole is only one, sew the other end of the tape.

12. The tape is threaded through the holes on the other workpiece lining. All of this should look like. Be careful – the length of the tape is necessary to measure very accurately by making fitting for your phone. Pull the orange tip of the tape, you should easily remove the phone cover from the future (he seems to rise to the top loop).

13. Now you will only have to sew all the pieces cover.  You can do it in pairs (front part + lining) or sew all four layers at once, do not forget to leave room at the top, where, in fact, will be retrieved the phone.

14. Done !!
