A New Lisa Foldable iPad Cover

This past weekend I made a new Lisa Foldable iPad Cover & used the Hanna prequilted fabric I used to make the new D'Ann 2 Zip Hipster. Am not much into being 'matchy' but, because I just love the new Hannah prequilted fabric, I decided to use the Hannah for my iPad cover.

The photos show the iPad cover both closed & open at the typing angle. As described in earlier posts about the Lisa iPad cover, the cover has 2 viewing angles. One angle is for typing & the other is for reading or web browsing. It is amazing what a difference a few degrees can make!

The cover can be ordered in any of the fabrics shown in my etsy store: https://www.etsy.com/shop/Bassetmommy

Price: $25 + S&H when applicable

The Farnell iPad (Shoulder Bag?) Case

As many of you know, to put it mildly, I have been obsessed with my iPad2 since buying it in May.  I regularly search for new iPad accessories I can make.   Thus far the Lisa iPad foldable cover and the new Farnell Case are my favorites.

 After making the Farnell Case I realized what a great shoulder bag it would make.

The bag has an adjustable, detachable shoulder strap and an outside zippered pocket.

Although it easily holds my iPad, I have been carrying the bag as a shoulder bag. Luckily I have because someone ordered one the first day I wore it. No work in that sale!
For the order I did add a zippered inside pocket as the customer requested.
The bag also has an adjustable shoulder strap.  I would avoid an inside zipper if using this case strictly for an iPad.

I used one of my newest fabrics, Oasis, to make the case and accessories.

For accessories I made a tissue case, eyeglass case and the ITH freebie wallet from the Purple Hat. The 2 wallets in the second photo were an order. I made one of them a tad deeper than the other and widened the tab closure so it would look more balanced.

Price for Farnell Case/Bag: $35 + S&H when applicable

The Lisa iPad 1 or 2 Folding Case/ Notebook/ Stand

In January I began my quest for the perfect tech 'toy'. I bought & returned 6 tech gadgets since January. I really thought toy #5, a Motorola Xoom was a keeper. For any # of reasons,I returned it.

Finally, in May, I tried out the iPad2 and OMG, I was blown out of the water by what it can do. The iPad2 is a definite keeper.  I just love it.

However, I thought my iPad needed a cover that was both pretty and functional.  Luckily I found the perfect pattern for a cover in sewspoiled's etsy store.  The pattern is designed to fit both the first generation iPad & the iPad 2.

What is great about this cover is it has 2 viewing angles, one for using the virtual keyboard and the other for viewing photos, recipes, reading e-books,etc.  Typing is so much easier when the iPad is in one of these covers. 

The cover folds closed like a book when the tablet is not in use.

The cover can be made from single weight or quilted fabric. I used prequilted fabric for the ones shown below.

Don't have an Ipad??? Think gifts!!!!!

The introductory price is $30.00 + S & H when applicable.
