The Smart Pocket!

Screenshot2011-06-12at3.40.35PM-2011-06-13-12-00.png
This is the Smart Pocket, it is a padded pocket for your smart phone with an armband and key fob. If you want to exercise, do an errand or just keep your phone by your side you can easily wear it in three stylish ways. The zipper closure keeps your device protected from dirt and grime. The snap exterior pocket can hold your cards or money. This pattern design will give you a template and a sizing chart so you can customize the pocket for your own smart device.

Sweet Coin Purse Tutorial for Teacher Gifts

This time of year is so special to me because I get to show my gratitude for all of the hard work that goes into teaching my daughters. I love to make handmade gifts and this year is no exception. Since money does not grow on trees around here, I looked at my stash (I keep my scraps in hat boxes ) and tried to see what I had a lot of; small zippers, trims, Peltex strips ( from making iPad cases ), fabric scraps and some hardware for key fobs. So I set to work.  Materials: Plastic multipurpose 5" Zipper  Fabric Scraps Lightweight interfacing 808 Pellon Trims (We clipped  key fobs  with 1.5" swivel hooks onto our coin purses . There are tons of tutorials on making key fobs .) Step 1: Print out the Coin Purse Template  PDF.  Cut 2 main fabric, cut 2 lining and 2 interfacing using the template.  Optional: Cut a 2"X2" square of your choice main fabric or lining. This strip of fabric is used to clip a key fob to your coin purse later. We used a 1.5
