Kindle Covers
 
5 Attachment(s)
It was Kindles for all this Christmas but they come with NO hardcover and no storage case so of course I had to surf the net for a pattern for a cover and then find one I really liked. I found this one and made 3 covers - one for me (circles), one for DH (peace signs) and one for DS (flames).

The directions were great, I tweaked it a little but pretty much followed the directions given. The 4th picture shows how you can set up the cover easel style.

Those covers look great. The Kindle 'fairy' visited us for Christmas, too, so I'm looking for cover ideas. Thanks for posting your covers. They are very nice.

Thanks, I too got one for Christmas. I priced a few at the stores and online, are they crazy $30 plus for practically nothing. I am making my own too....

Those are too cool. My grandson got a Kindle fire and no cover. Guess what Gramma is going to have to make?:)

Thanks for the info, I think you could also make this for a IPAD, might have to change the measurements a little but I think it would work about the same.

Gee guess I did it the lazy way. Went on ebay and bought a kit that had a cover, film for protecting the screen, ear plugs, a usb port and a stylus for 17.00 and no shipping cost to me.

Very nice!! I have to admit that I didn't know what a kindle was at first!! My husband would love the flames, great fabric!
