While on vacation this summer Erika and I escaped for a couple of hours and got lost in a favorite store in Tuftonboro, New Hampshire called Apple Hill.
While we were there I found these...
They are little pouches for a phone. I fell in love with them immediately... but when I looked at the price tag I couldn't justify spending the money. I took a picture and was determined to go home and make my own.
Well.. it turns out it was not as easy as the picture make them out to be... but like I said I was determined. What I liked about this project was even though I am not great at sewing I could stitch it together by hand and make it work... But at the same time because I don't have a clue how to really sew, I wasn't able to figure out how to make the fabric lining. And.... the sewing helpline I use wasn't available... so I decided to proceed without the lining, saving me a lot of time and frustration.
Here's mine...
The wool came from some sweaters I had felted back in February to make these hearts. The sweaters were a nice shade of "Scarlet" and "Gray"... so I ended up with an Ohio State color combination... Go Bucks!
