    Default I Pads out for a sail boat ride....

    Wanted to make something for our I-Pad's, and had this simple idea for hubbys, so came up with this silly little envelope for him to slide it in. That way it won't get scratched. The real color is much darker and I have it sending on a white piece of paper on my lap.

    Nothing special and no pattern...just playing at doing some sewing, and hadn't yet tried the blanket stitch and wanted to...so REASON ENOUGH. (Laughing)

    Good job! I like them both. I remember when you were looking for a pattern, clearly you don't need one. Now both I-Pads are safe.

    Recorded a sewing show on PBS, she used place-mats to make the cover. Turned back to back, and elastic in the corners, and big elastic through the middle....
