Hi All!

As this is the start of a new year and nothing has been new in here for a while, I am throwing up a new challenge to start the new year off right. This challenge will be creating smart phone case. Style, design, technique, use of color and uniqueness will all be noted. Challenge will be due January 31st and all entries must be in before midnight. And GO!

Do you mean something like this?

was thinking about this today, will see what I can come up with

Every day you learn something is a good day. If you don't learn something every day, was it worth waking up for?

Here is what I came up with. 6oz back and middle, 4oz for the card slot. Dyed with oxblood and black antique. Hand sewn with black waxed polythread from Maine Thread Co. Fits up to a 2.75"x5.25x3/8" phone.

Ok so I took the challenge. Pretty basic, dyed with black and mahogany colors, sam brown stud and belt clip. Stitched on a Campbell randall needle awl machine. Did some minor stamping on the fold over!

Not much of a competition person myself, but I needed a new smartphone case anyways...

I'll just add the pictures I took randomly.

The quick snap in the back is covered by a strap which assists in pulling out the smartphone if needed. I didn't mold it much as I wanted the smartphone to sit in there tight. Now one can do all kinds of things and it won't drop out unless one actually pulls the smartphone intentionally.

A more detailed explanation on it can be found here http://oldmillleathercrafts.thewesternsource.com/new-smartphone-sleeve/
