eReader case

My sewing machine is set up in the spare room in my flat. Sadly, the spare room has also become a dumping ground for every piece of junk that doesn't really have a proper place elsewhere in the flat. I'm currently in the process of clearing it out, but it's very slow going.

However, I have finally cleared the desk and made my sewing machine accessible again. To celebrate I made myself a case for my new eReader. I used this pattern, but made my own template rather than use the one that came with the patten. This naturally meant that I got the template wrong on the first attempt, (not enough seam allowance), and ended up with a very nice, but slightly too small pouch, which is currently keeping my whiteboard markers in one place.

Both of these were made with some two-tone silk, (it's gold and red and the photographs don't do it justice at all), and lined with some cotton that I dyed orange about a year ago. The flap on the eReader case has come out slightly wonky, but this was my second attempt at sewing it in place and a considerable improvement on the first.
