Finishing the Cell Phone Case

Video Transcript

"Hi! I'm Shelly Cordsen with expertvillage.com. We have now turned our cell phone cover inside out. We've pressed it, we've tucked in our little opening here. Now, we're going to pull it up. It's a matter of preference of how far you want to fold it in half. I took my cell phone and I lay it here. I want to make sure that my antenna is all inside, that I don't take a chance of it falling out or anything. That looks about right for me, so I'm going to just pin that just in the center. Now I'm going to sew a 1/4 an inch. I can choose to start here, backstitch, go around, stop here, or go ahead and give it that decorative stitch all the way around. What would be fun if you had decorative stitches on your sewing machine to do little flowers that went all the way around, little snow flakes. You can really jazz these up with some decorative stitching if you would like. Okay, here we go. We're doing a 1/4 inch again. Where my fold meets, I'm going to do some back stitches just for security. Another option is you can stop right here and not sew across and come up. I like to go ahead and turn mine. By coming up the side, we're going to catch that opening that we had over here when we turned the tag. I'm going to go ahead and come across. This helped really secure the handle too. These are completely washable, durable. Here's a concept; make one to match every outfit, make one to match every pair of shoes. We are officially...Move my pin. We are done. "
