Easy Felt Crafts

Felt is a cheap (and easy) fabric to work with! These projects will add a handmade touch and warm look to your home with just a few basic supplies.

Felt iPad Cover

Protect your iPad from scratches with a punch of color. Cut two pieces of felt -- one 8x10 inches and the other 8x13 inches. Decorate the smaller piece with felt cutouts. Sew a button 2 inches from the top as shown. Sew an elastic band to the top of the larger piece. (This will allow you to close the case.) Lay the smaller piece atop the larger piece, and stitch the exposed seams together.

Editor's Tip: Make a felt cover for your computer tablet or e-reader, too. Simply measure your device, cut your felt to size (The larger piece just needs to allow for a fold-over flap.), and follow the instructions above.
