Kindle case / eReader Sleeve - Made to order


I've started making Kindle cases. Because there's such a variety of eReaders, I'll make these to order once I know your particular model - whether it be Kindle or Kobo or Nook.

I've made up some samples to show my design. I love patchwork, so these are patchworked from two complementary fabrics, and themed for particular interest. I have a music lovers eReaders case:


And also one for a wine lover, with wine bottle labels stamped on the fabric:


I've also used a pretty bird themed fabric:


I add a line of embroidery to most of my covers, if it suits the design, and they are all fully lined and padded for extra protection. They close with a velcro tab.


Contact me at thesewhappyshop@yahoo.co.uk with any questions. Cost of each eReader sleeve is £16 plus £2.50 pp within the UK.

Fabric rabbits!


Two patchwork rabbits - one themed in purple, one in pink.


I've designed the pattern myself, based on watching my rabbits hopping. I wanted to capture that moment in mid leap.


The ears are from a fabric that has a handwritten script mentioning flowers from Shakespeare's time, while the eyes are buttons that I found at Liberty.


I've used another script fabric for their tummies, this time a Peter Pan inspired fabric about wishes and dreams, which seemed very appropriate for these special bunnies. The cheerful multicoloured print is a Kaffe Fassett! No one does patterns like Kaffee Fassett.


I can make rabbits from particular fabrics to order depending on which fabrics you would prefer, or which colours. Just ask!

GB £12 each
Post and packing within the UK: £2.50 or £4 for the pair

Sew Happy Lavender spaniels : Rosali fabric


I've been making my spaniels and dogs for quite a while now, and thought I'd show them here, as they've proved very popular.


I've always loved script fabrics, and I wanted to combine this design with some of my script fabrics, so each is a little different from what you may see elsewhere. The pattern is my own.


They work well with a variety of fabrics, but always with script ears! I've also been personalising with printed and sewn fabric labels


A closer look:



They are generously filled with polyester stuffing and also organic lavender, so arrive beautifully fresh.
