GPS Felt Case
Because of our impending move across the country (and my driving anxiety) my husband and I invested in a GPS. Our move out date is drawing closer and closer (NEXT MONTH!!) so I figured I'd better hurry and make our GPS a handy-dandy case for when it isn't being used.
I had the hardest time deciding what style of case to make and finally settled on a long felt sleeve. I couldn't just make a plain case (or else I wouldn't be me) so I embroidered a little car on the front.
I sewed some elastic to the back in a circle (a hair elastic would also work) to wrap around the front to hold the flap down. I sewed a piece of felt on top of where I attached the elastic to hid the excessive stitching (I wanted to make sure it wouldn't be coming off anytime soon).
I like it a lot and am glad to have something to protect what will soon be my best friend.
