Specs-tacular



I've been giving my little glasses case a test run over the past couple of days, and I love it so much, that I decided to whip up a whole lot more.



There's a bit of hand basting required with each one to get a nice neat finish, so I sat on the couch lastnight and watched The Real Housewives of New Jersey while happily stitching away....

I'll be taking them to my upcoming markets (list on sidebar). I still need to search the stash for some more blokey type fabrics (I wouldn't want the blokes to miss out).

Next job on the list is to make some shorter versions to suit gadgets.... better get onto it!

Fantastic - look at them - I hope you do well next market : o )

OK, so I REALLY want one of those. My Mum's glasses case has completely had it (she's holding shut with a rubber band - classy), so one of these would be perfect. Especially in a Japanese silky fabric....

They're really cool & from reading a few blogs, you weren't the only one watching Housewives of NJ while sewing. I don't have a digital television (read: newish) in the studio, so i have to stick to regular channels or DVDs. Enjoy, love Posie

Stacey said...

Are they big enough to fit blow fly eye sunnies? Mine don't seem to fit in regular sized glasses cases and therefore they're a bit scratched due to encounters with the car keys.

Fabulous! I hope some make their way to Handmade Heaven for my shopping pleasure!
