iPad 3 / iPad 2 / iPad 1 sleeve case cover - Light brown wool felt with reddish plaid

I decided to try a slightly different iPad case design by using an elastic strap and Velcro for closure. In the past I have sometimes run into the problem with a fabric or leather closure strap being a bit too short on some tablet cases. An elastic strap eliminates this problem as it's flexible. The body of the case is made of a light-brown 100% wool felt that's 3mm thick, and it's accented with a reddish wool-blend upholstery-grade plaid fabric. The new case turned out quite well. It fits all 3 generations of iPad.

I have always loved patchwork, I especially enjoy the process of laying out different fabric scraps to come up with a cute combination. Here are two examples I completed recently.

iPad 3 or iPad 2 case / sleeve / cover - Hen house roosters chickens in golden yellow and tomato red

I absolutely fell in love with this fabric the second I saw it... it reminds me of so many things that are warm, welcoming, down-to-earth... I tried to make a shoulder bag with it for myself, but still haven't had a chance to complete it. I started it, but then got busy with other things.

iPad 3 or iPad 2 case / sleeve / cover - Black and white houndstooth with pocket and leather / crimson red felt trim

This is a custom order for a customer of my ibagsnmore shop on Etsy. It's a variation on one of my most popular designs -- made with a black and white houndstooth fabric, with a handy outside pocket and a carrying strap. It's equipped with Velcro closure sewn on black leather and crimson red wool-felt tabs. It's very professional looking, don't you think?
