Hi Vanessa - Great tutorial; I made one yesterday afternoon for my new mobile phone! Now it'll be protected in my handbag. Thank you!
Hi Vanessa!, I just now completed 1 Cell Phone Cozy , for my Samsung Galaxy mobile. I made a slighly smaller pocket on one side , and for d other side i made a matching Tatted Flower . It's come out very well !. Thank U for sharing d Tutorial ! I think I 'll make some as Give away gifts! Bye!.
I would create a loop on the top so that I could hang it in my purse. I would sew a button inside the lining of my purse to hand it from. I would make it a nice bright color that is easy to find. GREAT tutorial.
I have been making these forever! I make a long strap, usually with bias tape so that I wear it around my neck.
Very nice tutorial. ..made one for my girlfriend. I added a over the shoulder strap and she loves it.
When I made a cozy for my friend, I went ahead and sewed the elastic loop on before sewing the sides of the outer piece so i didn't have to worry about keeping it in place. I also sewed on a longer piece of elastic toward the seam so she can attach it to the handle of her purse before dropping it in. I also made it of very bright colors so it's easy to see.
I love this tutorial. I've made 2 book cozies/sleeves using this method. First one was a regular paperback size. Then tonight I made one a bit bigger, more for a trade paperback. When I know I'll be waiting somewhere....doctor, dentist, any kind of appointment...LOL ... I pop the book I'm reading in the sleeve then into my purse and it keeps it safe from the disaster that is the purse. And yes, I prefer an old fashioned book to an e-reader. LOL I did watch some of your other tutorials a few months ago. I'm thinking I should find something else to make. You're awesome!
You are so good at explaining !
oh wow I love this design! I will definitely be making this as a pressie for mothers day!!
I am incorporating a wrist strap and am entirely sewing my cell phone cozy by using my serger, as my sewing machine was down. I used a flatlock stitch to make the strap hold in the swivel hardware. I did very little hand stitching, so I was surprised my serger could do 98% of the work! Fun project.
08/11/20: This was a wonderful and easy tutorial, Vanessa. I know this was done in 2014, but it can't get any easier than this, and I can't wait to try it this afternoon. Thank you!

I totally agree with you. This is so easy and user friendly. Thank You Vanessa !
I love eyeballing it.
You are great! Nice and clear, giving the information we might need. This one I could easily do. Some of the ideas you have I need to pay a lot more attention. I rely on your clear instructions. Thank you.
Thank you I have been looking for a pattern for my phone your awesome teacher 😃
Real pretty and easy thank you for sharing!! Liz
Good video. Thought about doing one of these some time back just never did. May have to now. Thanks
Thank you Vanessa that was a great tutorial as always
You are so awesome.....I have been waiting this. I have a phone wallet design that is done in the hoop....but I wanted one that I could do on my sewing machine. Thank you so much for sharing.
Made two each one different. Also I bought new elastic for mine was too thick. Love your instructions even though I have to watch it five times. Keep up the great instructions.

Elastic hair bindys from the dollar tree work great, plus there are different colors and lots of them for only a dollar.
Great video. I was looking for an easy tutorial for my son's tablet. This is perfect.
Thank you for sharing.

I would modify the cell phone closure by using Velcro instead of elastic. I think it would be easier for me :)
I wonder should you do a top stitch around the top when finished? I love this project!
super merci pour toutes vos vidéos :)
Love this!

Glad to have ya'! Thanks for commenting and I'm glad to hear you enjoyed our joint tutorial. I'll be posting another tutorial I filmed with Jenny right here on my channel in the coming weeks so stay tuned for that one! :)
te quedó muy lindo!!
Great video. Thank you for sharing. I have to be honest you have been my best sewing instructor and I have a learn alot from watching your videos. Each time someone ask me how did you do that? I tell them. I learn it from my teaching instructor The crafty Gemini. :) I have paid many subscription to learn how to sew and gave up but you have inspire me once more and I have been creating pajamas, pillows and many other things from you.
Fab sio easy thanks 😁
I love it. So cute. But I don't have a sewing machine. Is it doable by hand? And could I add a shoulder strap in their to make it a little phone purse?
wow!!!
It's too easy thank you
Can you show us how to make a cell phone arm strap thing for when you exercise? I have a few apps I can earn points towards gifts cards and I'd use them more if I had an arm strap for my device. Btw these are super cute. Love the one with the elephant. :D
I find the wonder clips will slip and prefer pinning 90% of the time. Especially if you're trying to be really precise in sewing exact matching seams etc. I'm a pinner :-]
do you know anything about the portable singer sewing machine? i'm trying to get it to go in reverse to back stitch any help?
Could you use this technique for an iPad case?
I have tried this case 3 times now, following the instructions very carefully, but each time the lining pouch seems to be too wide & the seam edges are baggy. Any advice please. I'm sure it's fine when the phone goes in but it's bugging me a bit. Thank you
Is there a specific type of fabric that needs to be used for the outside? Im worried about choosing something that will melt.
i dont have felt we can use other thing like felt what thing should be used plese tell
Just made two of them and have a third one to make.
Where did you get your cute iron and board?
Hello! Thanks for sharing this fun sewing tutorial. Where can we buy the appliqué? Is it washable? Thanks in advance!
Not the kind of phone i thought it would be but i like this one
When and where would you sew in clips to make it a little body bag??
hii Gemini.... I'm a beginner for sewing pls tell me what is the difference between fusible fleece, papar fleece & betting. .. pls make a video on this....
Can i know which brand sewing machine do you use plzzz
What is the weight of the interfacing (Pellon #) you use
Where do I buy the clips you used in this video?
What iron do you use? Im looking for a mini one and I need some guidelines! Thanks for this awesome tutorial btw

Question: I love your little pressing board. Did you make this like the one you did in a previous video? I am wanting to make one soon and wondered if you had any new tips or thoughts on making one since the first one. I love, love, love your videos and I hope 2015 is an amazing year for you and your family. Thank you so much!!

do you need to use batting?? +TheCraftyGemini
@TheCraftyGemini

+Lynn Carroll You'll need something to give it some body so it doesn't have to be batting... but fusible fleece, some felt, something with some firmness and bulk to it.
Could you use two pieces of felt instead of batting
