I’m pretty much obsessed with making containers for all the electronic gadgets that come into my life. My cell phone doesn’t have one, but essentially everything else does.
My little USB modem got a case out of leftover fabric from some capris I made years ago, and a (purely decorative) button out of my grandmother’s button box. It’s a simple pouch with a snap-closed flap. I like how it makes me think of a mushroom.
My previous camera had a pouch with a flap that came up a narrow side and over the top, and a pocket between the flap and the main pouch that would hold two spare AA batteries. The fabric was purchased as a remnant. Unfortunately it was AWOL when I went to take the photos for this entry.
My current camera has a pouch with no flap – there is an elastic loop that keeps everything together. I used ribbon to hide the cut edge so I wouldn’t have to turn it under; this fabric was from the Sew-Op and I wanted to use the barely-large-enough piece I had.
My laptop has the same laptop sleeve that my previous laptop had. The fabric was clearance upholstery fabric and the ribbon was from my stash. It’s starting to show a lot of wear, though – my embroidery around the edges of the ribbon is coming out in places. I have pulled out the appropriate floss and will hopefully make some repairs in the near future.
