Brandon’s padded IPAD case
Brandon was blessed to receive an iPad before Father’s Day. I immediately thought about making Brandon a cover for it as a Father’s Day present but all of the iPad covers in blog world seemed a little girly. I knew that I couldn’t make him this iPad bag since it really looks like a purse. When I found this tutorial from A Step In the Journey I knew it was perfect! Instead of a monogram on the front I tracked down some Arkansas fabric. Oh how I love the internet. 😉
Brandon was so excited with his gift.
As crazy as it is this is the first thing I have ever sewn for Brandon. Poor guy! (I do mend things for him often but definitely need to make sewing for him more of a priority.) The look on his face was absolutely priceless when he opened it.
There is a pocket on the front and the back for storing cords and such.
I found the tutorial to be great. I loved the idea of using a hair tie instead of elastic. It’s actually easier because you don’t have to sew the elastic together. 🙂 The only change I made was to sew the button on with the sewing machine in the beginning stages. I had to guess a little on the placement but it worked out great! I used a quilted padded black fabric for the inside, a sturdy red fabric for the outside, and fun Arkansas fabric for the pocket. I love how it turned out.
So thankful I could bless my sweet husband by making him an IPAD cover.
