How to sew a phone & tablet stand--great DIY!

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

This thorough video shows you how to sew a phone/tablet stand using two different fabrics which allows you to use directional fabric and offers wonderful design flexibility. What's even better is the hand-sewn seam to finish the stand is on the BACK of the stand and not viewable to the public--how great is that! Great DIY project for beginner sewers giving you wonderful results. Perfect for Craft Fairs as well as gifts for friends & family. I'll use Stitch Witchery, Pellon Shape Flex, Poly-Fill stuffing, Pellon Peltex, heavy weight Poly Beads and Frixion marking pens.

    You're right...a better stitch on the back would be lovely, and I've thought about a 'ladder' stitch to see whether the join would be less visible. Since the stitching is on the underside, I wasn't too put out with how it looked, but you're right...a better stitch would be nicer looking.

    I'm so sorry...I don't have any written version anywhere. This version doesn't really allow for only one piece of fabric to make the entire stand--there are some very good videos out there that I think will allow for only one large piece of fabric, but you'd have to play with where the opening goes so it's not well seen by the public. Sorry I can't give you a better discussion about your very good question.

Folks are funny though...they'd love to buy for $2 but your efforts and fabric are worth much more than that. Good luck though--they sold nicely once folks figured out how helpful they were.

    Ай бұрын

    I normally use about 1/2 cup of weighted beads...but to make 96 of these...that'll certainly take up a bunch of beads for sure. For your instruction purposes, you might be forced to use perhaps rice instead. Won't really be able to wash the stand using rice (that might be a bit gooey after you've washed it), but the cost might be a better option to get the information to your students. I like the poly-beads, but rice will work as well. Hope that helps and just awesome you're teaching a bunch of students--that's just excellent and I bet you're a terrific teacher!

  • @peregrinedesigns1020

    @peregrinedesigns1020

    Ай бұрын

    dang...I wish I knew of a better way. It can certainly get a bit 'squeezy' getting that smaller piece to the main body. There are a number of other excellent videos out there that make the stand using one piece of fabric which would be easier...but I don't think it then allows you to use a different fabric in both the main body and the small roll in the front and if I'm not mistaken, it makes you do your hand stitching on the front where it's easier for folks to see. Doggone...I wish I had a better suggestion for you. I do know from experience, that when I make a number of a certain item, I figure out better ways to make it quicker, easier and just plain better. You're a good sewer...trust yourself to make it a couple of times and make it better for you.

    Do you suppose it would work ok to just shape flex the entire pattern pieces rather than just the seam allowance edges? Seems that there’s not much fabric left un-shape flexed by the time you’ve done the edges anyway? Is there any reason you can think of why that would not work out alright?

    You're right...cardboard washed will get a bit gooey I would think. You could though use what's called Peltex or Timtex which is a much sturdier product which is similar to what's used in the bill of a cap (like a baseball hat brim). I've used this product as well, but didn't necessarily tell folks to use it because it makes them think they have to buy it as it's pretty optional. I don't plan on washing my stand, but you're absolutely right...cardboard will compromise a washing--so use Peltex/Timtex if you plan on putting it in the washer. Thanks so much for your comment...very helpful to folks.
