Hi everyone....My daughter gave me a Nook for Xmas.....and was wondering if anyone has made a quilted cover for one.....and if you have would you share your pattern?....I have a pretty good idea of how to make one but thought I might check out some patterns before attempting to make one....Thx Trish

I made a quick one just to protect it from scratches, but I am changing my design to included a handle. I actually broke my Kindle trying to prevent it from falling when I tripped. Grabbing it, I squeezed the screen and it didn't work right after that. SO, I want a handle so that I'm not holding it that way.

All I did was make a padded rectangle double the size of the Kindle using leftover batting. I folded one side up until it securely held the Kindle. Then pinned, sewed on both sides. Then top stitched all around.

I made one like this for my daughter's Nook. I didn't do the appliqued flower. It was a little long, so if you use this pattern, you might want to alter it for the Nook.

I made one for my Kindle fire.. I made it with scraps on the outside, and a solid piece on the inside.. I put a piece of velcro to use as a closure.. It took maybe 1/2 hour.. You really don't need a pattern.. Just imagination.

I think if I was to do one, I would want to slip some kind of stiffener into the sides. I'm thinking maybe the cardboard from an old binder? It would add a little extra protection along with the padded cover. I think d-rings on the corners for a detachable sholder strap would be nice too. That way if your hands are full, it is safe on your sholder.

I am going to work on one tomorrow. I have some fabric left from a quilt I think I will use.

I made I put rigid plastic then batting between the inside and outside I also put a strip of valcrow on the back of my reader and a piece on the fabric . My reader has never fell out of its cover I have dropped it twice and it was protected enough it did not break hope this is clear feel free to pm me if you want detailed instructions

To stiffen is, try using a composition book. It's almost exactly the right size, not really stiff. And a pocket on the back for the charger.
