Trying to come up with handmade gifts for men can result in some pretty 'interesting' projects. But I personally don't know any man with a great desire to own a quilted tool belt ;-)
Imagine my delight when my Mr. asked me to sew him something! He has just bought himself a new i-pad and in his quest to keep the toy in pristine condition asked me to sew him some sort of case to keep it in. I happily took on my mission to come up with the right shape and size and most of all find the perfect fabric for it.
When I came across this wonderful print by Alexander Henry, I knew that it was just perfect for the job.
It was a little fiddly to get the fabric alignment just right so none of the 'ladies' got decapitated! I am glad it all worked out in the end. The rest of this i-pad sleeve came together quite easily.
My Mr. says it rocks, I call that a mission accomplished!
What kind of things do you like to sew for your husbands, boyfriends, fathers and brothers? I'd love to know!
