iPhone cosy

This is my second OpWall crafting project.  I used the internet and my little brother's iPod to work out the dimensions, but I haven't seen it on an iPhone yet so I'm a teeny bit nervous on that front.  I'm also not sure how happy I am with the text - it was meant to look like the old blocky SMS text, but I don't know how apparent that is, it's a little hard to read.



The wool is still more leftover Brown Sheep Lamb's Pride - the yarn that just keeps on giving!  It is thick enough to protect a phone from the world, I think.

Passport Cover

I made a passport cover for my dad's birthday. Kind of. I finished it at three in the morning the day before his birthday, then realised it was too small. So my options were to stay up all night or give him that part of the present late. I opted for the latter, and then took nearly a month to get around to making it... I'm a terrible daughter. More of this was handsewn than I had intended, as it took me a while to work out the tension settings on the new sewing machine, but I got it in the end!

The outer cover is a fairly light cotton, but it's lined with curtain lining (left over from a bag I made for a friend), so that makes it a bit sturdier. The clouds and airplane are felt.

Fun fact: it is hard to make a cute cartoon airplane not look like a shark.
