Instructions
The fabric in the tutorial isn’t felt, it’s denim because i didn’t have any felt left, i have also made these from foam and leatherette
1. This is the template for the 2 pieces:
2. Cut your fabric according to the template, I used zigzag shears so the fabric won’t fray and this way I didn’t have to hem the edges.
3. Embelish the front according to your taste you can use beads, felt, sublime stitching, applique… here a few examples.
4. Place the front and back pieces on top of eachother wrong sides facing:
5. Attach from 3 sides leaving the top open, I used hand stitching but it would’ve been neater and faster with a machine.
6. Attach a snap on the top of the handle from the right side of the fabric, and the other part of the snap to the top right corner of the body of the cozy, I used a snap in the green cosy, and Velcro on this one, the button is only decorative, of course you can use a button or a ribbon as well.
7. This is the finished cozy attached to a tote i made.

It is so cute! and to the guest that said it was plain, why don’t you make the phone pouch and add your own fancy touches to it. you dont have to copy the pouch entirely =)
I love it! I’m going to try it out since I really need a case for my cell phone.It looks nice and is very creative. I will be the fashionista of my school.
it is just too plain looking and wy would you spend the time on it when you could just bu y a much nicer looking one at a store maybe a few fancier details would be better 🙁
it is a very good craft.Cool!

Everyone has a different sized mobile phone so measure it according to your phone and just follow the basic template design layout to suit your phone.

kids at my afterschool club loved this, especially 9-11’s!
that’s a nice easy idea. xmas gifts, here i come. i think if you use someone else’s pattern to make things to sell, bjptl, you gotta give them credit at least. (this is hpets360 from craftster)
I am definately going to make this one,and poaaibly sell some. It is so simple,yet cute and practicle. Judy(bjptl)
