Kindle Case - Success!

For a year, on and off, I've been playing around with a case for the kindle, and other e-readers.  When I first started down this path, we didn't own a kindle.  It's really hard to make a case that's somewhat specific to a device when you don't have one - or easy access to one.

After several failed attempts, I finally have a case that I'm happy with - both in the functionality of it, and the ease of making it.

Knowing my fondness for zippers, my goal was to make a case that zipped on three sides, similar to my gadget (ipod, iphone) case.

The issue I was having was that I wanted the device to fit snuggly, but not too much so.  Finally, I figured out that I needed to make the case like it was a book - with a spine.

I love the result and I'm hopeful that sales will reflect the quaility of the item.


You can check out the selection I have for this style and a hipster style in my etsy shop!

Happy Sewing!

New Identity

My fabulous husband is working on a new identity for Sew Darn Simple.  I have a new logo - see my header above and he is also redesigning my business cards.

Here is the older banner that I was using, and you can see the new one above!



Hopefully my website will be next!

Let me know what you think!
