Default Quilted Eyeglass Cases with Paintstiks Deco

Here are some eyeglass cases I just finished. They are hand-dyed fabrics with Shiva Paintstik Rubbings and then FMQing. I'm pretty happy with the way these experimental cases turned out! They were quick and easy and I had a lot of fun with the paintstik rubbings on these. ;-) (Here's a link to the Paintstiks I used...there's a demo video linked near the bottom of the page: http://www.dharmatrading.com/html/eng/3889103-AA.shtml )

They have a loop and button closure on the front.

And here's a view of the backs.

Very pretty eyeglass cases! They would also be nice for storing your rotary cutter in for going to class.

What a great idea! I've been looking at these thinking there must be more uses for them... And thinking of the possibilities of similar ones in different sizes too; maybe iPad cases even!
