made for my sister who saw my DS case and requested that i make her something... purple.

Used my own pattern from the size of the camera.

But used a Sublime Stitching Rock'n'Roll pattern.

Design requirements were:
- purple
- wristlet
- for taking to concerts
- cool looking

You Will Need (7 things)

  • ¼ yd Purple Cotton Fabric
  • Needle & Thread
  • Embroidery Thread
  • Sashiko Thread
  • ¼ yd Batting or other padding
  • Cotton
  • ¼ yd black Cotton fabric

Steps (9 steps, 240 minutes)

  1. 1

    From outside fabric (I ironed on interfacing before i cut the below):
    - cut 1 side 15"x4"
    - cut 1 lid 6"x6" (you'll want to embroider this first if you're doing something similar to mine otherwise it won't fit in the embroidery hoop)
    - cut bottom 6"x3"
    - cut moo card holders 3.5"x2"

  2. 2

    From batting and lining fabric cut:
    - 1 side 15"x4"
    - 1 lid 6"x6"
    - 1 bottom 6"x3"

  3. 3

    Measure and clip the long edge of the outside fabric at the following marks:
    - 0.5, 5.5, 7.5, 12.5

    Press a crease at each of the measurements.

    Sew sides together with a 1/2" seam

  4. 4

    Attach exterior sides to bottom
    - right sides together and pin one by one (side by side)
    - stitch around and backstitch at each clip
    - trim the bottom corners

  5. 5

    Attach the moo card holders to the lining piece, where you want them.

    Then follow the previous steps 3+4 to make the lining with the batting and lining fabric.

  6. 6

    Attach lining to the exterior.
    - right side of exterior facing out
    - wrong side of lining facing out
    - fold in tops and pin
    - stitch 2 sides around (i handstitched this but you can machine it)
    - insert the wristlet hook in to the 3rd side
    - leave the back open for now.

  7. 7

    Make lid piece by putting the lining and the outside fabric face together and stitching 3 sides around.

    open out.

  8. 8

    Insert the lid into the opening of the main piece and stitch closed.

    Attach velcro or other fastening, velcro will keep it more secure.

  9. 9

    Finished!
