My favorite part of the Despicable Me movies are the minions. I love those little guys. I wanted to make a fun minion project and this is what I decided on.

Measure your phone to determine what size yellow rectangles to cut out. Add about 1/2" to each side for seam allowances. Cut out 2 yellow rectangles from felt that size. Using a picture of a minion as a guide, cut out his features from the other colors of felt- grey and black goggles, white eye, blue overalls. They're really simple shapes, just circles and rectangles.
Using your sewing machine (or by hand! I just don't have the patience.) stitch down the felt features. I started with the eye, than added goggles. After the I did the mouth and overalls.
...
Stitch a 1/4" hem on the top edge of both yellow pieces.
Place them rights sides together, pin and stitch down the 2 sides and the bottom using a 1/4" seam. Leave the top open!'
Flip right side out through the top! Now your phone can be despicably awesome.
