I recently bought a Kindle. I always wanted one. I had been waiting for them to drop under $100 which they did. I decided to upgrade to the Fire version. I didn't want non-buyers remorse by buying the black and white version when there was a color one available!
I looked at the store for some cover and didn't really like any of them and they were about $30 for the cheapest. They didn't have a screen cover at all so off to my fabric stash I went.
I took almost all of my fabric home to KC so I could focus on the stuff I already made. I knew it wouldn't work but I gave it a try. I kept all of my solids because I was still working on the all solids quilt.
I kept up with the all solids idea after finding that most of my scraps were going to be a little short. I cut a piece of paper to the size I wanted and folded it to create the pattern. I suppose it was bit a paper piecing without the sewing on the paper.
The front and back cover looks pretty good!
After some mistakes with the size of the elastic I will have to redo part of the interior which means ripping apart almost all of it to fit the elastic that I messed up the first time!
It's a learning process but I'm getting better at all these crafting things. Keeps me busy and out of trouble.
