Sunglasses Case



At the Duck Pond Market this past weekend, I was asked to make a sunglasses case.  I have to admit that this has been on my To Do list for ages but I just haven't got around to it - so it was a good excuse to give it a go.


I used the guide by the fabulous Lisa Lam at U-handbag but this meant making my own pattern - eeek!  This is always risky for me.





Some cutting and a little bit of sewing later, we get to the exciting part:


Will it work when when all turned out...


Er...no actually. 

 It was a bit wide and looked a bit odd.  So off for a cup of tea and rethink and chop a couple of cm's off the width and start again with success..


It even fits my super big Jackie O' glasses.
