Since I have a lot of scrap fabric, I was trying to determine what could I do with it. I don't like throwing anything away if it looks like it even has just a little bit of hope.
You'll remember from a previous post that I'd gotten a new phone and had dropped it and cracked the screen. After that I would put it inside a sock and keep it in my purse. Well, pulling a cell from a sock can look pretty darn country. You may ask why I didn't buy a case for the phone? If you'll remember, I am cheap frugal.
For my first attempt I tried to get sassy and use real suede (I cut it from a jacket I bought at the Thrift store for the purpose of making a wristlet). When I got ready to sew, the machine needle wouldn't go throught it. Instead of fight with it, I tossed it.
Attempt # 2 involved scraps from a brown woolen embossed with silver and black swirly stitching. I'd bought the fabric for a jacket*. I decided that the strap was too thick as well as the fabric. I'd double layered it to give it some cushion in case I dropped the phone. Just in case you haven't noticed I'm not using a pattern so what should I expect? I'm the type of person who swings by the seat of her 
I'm not sure what kind of animal this is but it serves the purpose.* The jacket I was working on with the scraps from attempt #2.
As you can see, I do a lot of FAILS.
If at first, second or third, you don't succeed, QUIT trying!
THAT'S IT***
