Manly Tablet Cover

Manly Tablet Cover

For Christmas my mom bought my dad a Toshiba Thrive {lucky dog}. I sewed him a very manly cover for it. I used a leather looking vinyl I bought at Joann's. I wanted to use leather, but I'm not sure where to buy leather around here, so knock off leather it is. I did use a leather needle to make sure my machine didn't throw a fit. I also used heavy duty thread to give it a better look. The inside is lined with felt so his screen is completely protected from scratches. I think the word he used on Christmas morning was "perfect". Yeah, that's right, perfect. {smiles}







Whatcha think? I'm happy I could sew something for my dad. I've given handmade gifts to most of my family members, but the guys are always the hardest. Hopefully he keeps using it :)

Much Love~
