Mobile Phone Covers

Mobile
phone covers make great gifts for teenagers and grown-ups.
Embellish with seasonal items for gift-giving all around the
year. Bright colors, flowers and butterflies (above) will
make it perfect for spring and summer, orange and burnt
color fabric for fall (end of this page) and an angel doll
(right) will make this a perfect gift for Christmas.
You can use leftover scraps of fabric and felt to make these
mobile covers.
Materials:
scraps of fabric/felt
embellishments
buttons
round elastic
material for lining
Directions:
1. Cut 3-1/2" x 10-1/4" pieces out of fabric or felt in
your choice of colors.
2. Cut lining of the same size.
3.
Sew the two short ends together with right sides facing each
other. On one short side place the round elastic to form a
loop.
4. Turn inside out and sew the 2 sides folding the strip
to form a bag.
5. Sew a button in front to adjust with the elastic loop.
6. Sew a loop at the back for putting key ring.
7. If necessary, sew a string when stitching the sides to
have a hanging mobile cover.
8. Embellish with little felt patches or little
characters taken off children's hair pins or headbands.
