the story of the kindle case

kindle1

kindle2

after 4 re-designs and several failed attempts, i finally completed a case for my new (free, thanks to my sis-in-law!) kindle. i like the one i ended up with, however, if i were to make another i would do a few things different.

first, i would use velcro instead of a bow-tie to secure it closed. second, i would figure out a way to have an elastic band at the top to hold the kindle in place. and third, i would make the pocket just a little bit bigger so it wouldn't slip out as much.

but i think it's pretty cute, and compared to the first two i made it's way more functional (the kindle actually fits inside!)

  2. Nicely done! I've never used a kindle, but they seem to be getting quite popular.
