MAKE: SUNGLASSES CASE

If you are looking for a simple sewing project then stop right here. This free glasses or sunglasses case is great for embroidery beginners and those new to working with felt. The photographic step by step illustrations and written instructions are simple and easy to follow.

In the summer I seem to be constantly switching between sunglasses and reading glasses and neither have a case, they languish in my bag wrapped in a cleaning cloth secured by a hair tie. Not terribly protected! This felt case is the perfect size for a pair of specs, but is also long enough to make a great pencil or phone case or a sleeping bag for a toy mouse …

The basic pattern and instructions for this case are available free to download from my website, just click the button below. It looks really good made in a mix of colours, the 4 layers of felt make it extra protective and the buttons mean there's no scratchy clasps to damage your specs.

The step by step instructions are clear and easy to follow.

The templates are designed at 100% scale and can be printed on both A4 and US Letter sized paper.

The mix of felt colours means the case looks great undecorated but I have also designed an accompanying set of 10 fruit embroidery patterns that are also available on the website for just £3 ... thats 30p a design! Click the button below to get your fruit cocktail started!!
