Great gift idea

With these cute protective covers, mobile and smart phones are guaranteed to get no more scratches.

What you need for the protective cover for the mobile phone:

  • Cotton or linen fabric in beige tones
  • Sewing machine and matching sewing thread
  • pretty button, ribbon made of velvet or jewelry beads
  • push-button
  • tape measure
  • fabric scissors
  • pins
  • sewing needle

And this is how it's done:

1. Place the fabric on top right side. Cut out a piece about 32 cm long and 9 cm wide. Pay attention to the dimensions of the mobile phone.

2. Put the long sides together with pins on the right and left and clean the edge all the way around, except for a small opening to turn the fabric around.

3. Turn the fabric hose. Sew opening with hand.

4. Fold 12 cm of the fabric tube upwards and close the side openings with a seam.

5. Turn the bag again.

6. Fold the laterally protruding edge inwards on the flap and fix it with a seam.

7. Optionally decorate the bag with a button, decorative stitching, velvet ribbon or decorative beads and close with a push button.
