5 typewriter ipad case.

7.30.2012

I hope you all had a nice weekend!  I spent most of my weekend quilting my triangle quilt and sewing up this iPad case for my partner in a swap.
My partner seems to love Melody's typewriters (seriously, who doesn't?!) so I had to add one to the outside of this case!  I was inspired by Amber's awesome cases, of course.
I used some faux suede fabric for the top panel, a Lecien Color Basics print for the outside and inner pocket lining, and some Modern Whimsy Circles for the lining.  The green matches perfectly with the heart on the typewriter print!
I used Faith's tutorial for the case with a few slight modifications.  I highly recommend the tutorial!  I would recommend adding an extra 1/4" or so to the measurements if you plan to use batting or thicker interfacing (I used canvas as my interfacing here) and you happen to have a 1st generation iPad.  Mine fits rather snugly inside.
I really hope my partner likes this case!  I've got some extra goodies to put together and then I'll ship this off to her.

  4. You have such an amazing eye for aesthetics! I really don't think any partner of yours would be upset in a swap! I was thinking it would be fun to be in a sewing swap--where do you find them? I love this case! :)
