    This is a great idea. Do you line them with flannel or cotton?

    I line then with silky soft drapery fabric stabilized with woven interfacing. I think the inside should be very soft to protect the kindle, nook, or e-reader surface. I think flannel would be good and that bamboo fabric - or minky fur.

    Now I feel pressure - I like how the act of beginning just brings it all together. I only have to eliminate colors. I will most likely end up doing 3 or 4 quilts instead of 1 which is part of my procrastination.

    That is what I was thinking that the inside would have to help protect the screen. Yours are very pretty too.
