My daughter got a Kindle Fire for Christmas and wanted me to make her a temporary case. She liked the heather colored fabric that is somewhat the consistency of fiberglass and it shreds like crazy. Found a piece of felt in purple that was just enough to cover the device and used two pieces of fun foam for more protection. The design I think came from Sew Forum as she is a sci fi person and all the other designs I found for space were juvenile looking. Don't have a mega hoop so this was sewn on the machine. As usual I didn't measure except for the size of the felt plus enough to wrap around. She didn't want the felt cut and didn't want a handle so I worked around her specifics and she is happy with it. There is a case with a built in keyboard that she wants to buy in February so that's why this is temporary protection. Image 3 is with the Velcro closure and Image 4 I was down to the last bits of thread that matched.

Thank you. I showed her a few designs and this is the one she picked. She was so happy with the case she showed it off at work today.

132773You've done a very professional job, it is a pity it is not going to be used for longer. Maybe it will get passed onto another once your daughter has her new case with built-in keyboard.

Thank you. With the padding will repurpose it so she can use it with her camera lenses.

It is the Amazon tablet for web, movies, music, apps, games, reading kinda like a mini computer. I even downloaded some designs to see what it could do. It is hard to say no especially since it needed protection.
