Members Stetson912 Posted August 1, 2017 Members Report Posted August 1, 2017 Howdy all, been a while for me but I made this thing! My step moms birthday is coming up and she's mentioned she wanted a phone wallet. So I made one. I used 4)5 oz horween tumbled Essex in parisian blue and .8 green tiger thread. The card slots we're split down to 1 mm and it's lined with cotton fabric. I didn't do much with the edges because of the fabric. Next time I'll trim it short so I can do the edges better. Otherwise I'm pretty happy with it. Thanks for looking. All comments and critiques welcomed. Cheers! Quote
Members motocouture Posted August 1, 2017 Members Report Posted August 1, 2017 Nice! I like the contrast of the green thread. Is the iPhone case just one of those soft, generic ones? Quote
Members Stetson912 Posted August 1, 2017 Author Members Report Posted August 1, 2017 Oh yeah I shoulda said it is. It's a body glove? Just a generic case. It's flexible too tho. I believe it said it's a "gel" case. But even at that it's rigid enough. I did see somewhere where someone wet moulded a case the phone snapped into. That would be too difficult for me but would be super awesome too haha. Also the wrist loop is just a piece of 325 paracord with a Matthew walker knot on the end of it. Her favorite colors are green and blue. I found this out after I started. Just so happened I was already going with green and blue haha. Lucked out. Quote
Members plinkercases Posted August 1, 2017 Members Report Posted August 1, 2017 Thats a great gift well done. and I like the idea of the gel case sewn ion to receive the phone. I don't think I would have thought of that. Now I don't have to. Quote
Members Stetson912 Posted August 1, 2017 Author Members Report Posted August 1, 2017 Thanks. Stitching chisels punch right through it haha. Quote
Members Wedgetail Posted August 2, 2017 Members Report Posted August 2, 2017 Nicely done mate! She'll love it. Quote
Members Stetson912 Posted August 2, 2017 Author Members Report Posted August 2, 2017 Thanks @Wedgetail, she has been wanting one for a while and I'm just now making it haha. I'll probably be making more with a few changes. Quote
