By popular request...I have written a PDF sewing pattern so that you can create your own ereader cover, similar to the ones I carry in my Etsy shop!
The 18-page pattern is written in a tutorial style, with PLENTY of clear photos showing each step in the process. You will be able to zoom in on the pictures on your computer, if you want to see details even more clearly. Examples of the photos are shown in this listing. The text includes tips and options. An intermediate level sewist can make one in a matter of 2 - 3 hours, even the first time.
Ereader covers make wonderful gifts and provide protection and soft support. You can choose fabrics to reflect the personality of the ereader's owner. I have used European linen for the front accent, to add a touch of class. If you prefer, a contrast fabric, or even the lining fabric could be substituted.
The finished cover measures about 6" x 9" but the best part is that you can MAKE IT FIT your own particular model of ereader. You could even make it large enough for an IPad! To take the guesswork out of this project, my pattern includes a WORKSHEET for measuring and cutting pieces to the proper size. Save your worksheet so you can easily make more covers for your ereader, or start fresh to make various sizes.
THIS LISTING IS FOR A PDF PATTERN, NOT THE FINISHED EREADER COVER! If you check my other listings, you will find finished ereader covers for sale. If you have a special request, contact me...I would love to sew something just for you!
The PDF file will be available as a DOWNLOAD as soon as you buy it. Follow the instructions to access your pattern PDF. International shoppers are welcome!
