    Hi Vanessa - Great tutorial; I made one yesterday afternoon for my new mobile phone! Now it'll be protected in my handbag. Thank you!

    I would create a loop on the top so that I could hang it in my purse. I would sew a button inside the lining of my purse to hand it from. I would make it a nice bright color that is easy to find. GREAT tutorial.

    I have been making these forever! I make a long strap, usually with bias tape so that I wear it around my neck.

    I love this tutorial. I've made 2 book cozies/sleeves using this method. First one was a regular paperback size. Then tonight I made one a bit bigger, more for a trade paperback. When I know I'll be waiting somewhere....doctor, dentist, any kind of appointment...LOL ... I pop the book I'm reading in the sleeve then into my purse and it keeps it safe from the disaster that is the purse. And yes, I prefer an old fashioned book to an e-reader. LOL I did watch some of your other tutorials a few months ago. I'm thinking I should find something else to make. You're awesome!

    When I made a cozy for my friend, I went ahead and sewed the elastic loop on before sewing the sides of the outer piece so i didn't have to worry about keeping it in place.
    I also sewed on a longer piece of elastic toward the seam so she can attach it to the handle of her purse before dropping it in. I also made it of very bright colors so it's easy to see.

    I am incorporating a wrist strap and am entirely sewing my cell phone cozy by using my serger, as my sewing machine was down. I used a flatlock stitch to make the strap hold in the swivel hardware. I did very little hand stitching, so I was surprised my serger could do 98% of the work! Fun project.

  • @bethglenmaddie

    I would modify the cell phone closure by using Velcro instead of elastic. I think it would be easier for me :)

    Great video. Thank you for sharing. I have to be honest you have been my best sewing instructor and I have a learn alot from watching your videos. Each time someone ask me how did you do that? I tell them. I learn it from my teaching instructor The crafty Gemini. :) I have paid many subscription to learn how to sew and gave up but you have inspire me once more and I have been creating pajamas, pillows and many other things from you.

    I find the wonder clips will slip and prefer pinning 90% of the time. Especially if you're trying to be really precise in sewing exact matching seams etc. I'm a pinner :-]

  • @k.c.carlisle1722

    Can you show us how to make a cell phone arm strap thing for when you exercise? I have a few apps I can earn points towards gifts cards and I'd use them more if I had an arm strap for my device. Btw these are super cute. Love the one with the elephant. :D

    Question: I love your little pressing board. Did you make this like the one you did in a previous video? I am wanting to make one soon and wondered if you had any new tips or thoughts on making one since the first one. I love, love, love your videos and I hope 2015 is an amazing year for you and your family. Thank you so much!!

      +Lynn Carroll You'll need something to give it some body so it doesn't have to be batting... but fusible fleece, some felt, something with some firmness and bulk to it.

    I'm sure it's fine when the phone goes in but it's bugging me a bit.
