Since making the Passport Boarding Pass Holder from the old Cancer Research bag, my sore fingers have had some good rest so it's time to do something with the remaining material. Using the same method as the Passport Boarding Pass Holder , I made an iPad case: I've used an old worn out vest (the size was just nice) as the lining, so that the case will have some kind of padding as extra protection for the iPad. Securing the padding (old vest) with rough running stitch on both ends. After doing proper back stitching on both ends, fold into half and stitch on both sides. Turn inside out. Unused hair rubber bands stitched under buttons to make loops, then stitch 2 buttons on the other side. In our memory, but now serving even better purposes: The Cancer Research canvas bag before the make over
That is very creative of you, exactly how long did it take you to make that?
ReplyDeleteThanks :D
ReplyDeleteI think I spent about 2-3 hours each night weaving in front of the TV, and it must have taken me about 3 nights to finish it. That included me changing my mind over the design and the shape, dismantling and reweaving over and over again. As I didn't have a blueprint to follow through so everything depended on my spontaneous thoughts.
How do you do it? Do you have a manual?? I would love to make my own bags!
ReplyDeleteI've just added the basic weaving diagram for the pattern. Unfortunately I don't have the full manual to the whole bag, because it was designed totally on impulse :D
