It seems like ages ago I found this idea for an ebook cover. And today I finally made it!
\Well, the idea was actually for a lap top cozy....
It's made from 100% wool felt from achildsdream.com (love their Holland wool felt). I laid the reader on the felt and added 1/4" all the way around (11.5"x7.75" for the outside and 5"x7.75" for the two inner pieces). I cut a rectangle on the front, added light grey felt behind it and then machine stitched designs all over it. I then embroidered "jen_a_sketch". I added the buttons last.
I'm pretty darn happy with it! I found this version on etsy. Cute idea!!

really really love the ebook cover, you did a stellar job on it! the girls look much more similar in age in the last pic, weird...
love the etch a sketch. really cute. And wow, I thought you did like a mirror thing on the computer to emily at first glance for that last picture.
HOW COOL!!!!! I love the Jen a sketch! And that pic of Emily with the hamburger on her head is DARLING!
I really like the etch-a-sketch ebook cover, it's a really neat idea. The pictures are really cute too- there's no denying they're sisters, that's for sure. :)It's so funny how Emily sometimes seems like she's older than she really is. (Coming from the picture w/ her head in her hands where you say she's tired of you. hehehe) Have a good weekend!
Love, love, LOVE the Sony Reader cover!!! I just bought one of those last month before I flew to Houston, and I so need to make that cover for it! I'll be ordering my felt right now, thankyouverymuch! You're awesome!
LOVE the ebook cover! The picture of the two girls is soooooooo cute! Is is just me, or do they get cuter every day?
Awesomeness. All of it. And no worries about the bibs, we still have a month. Ish. Thanks Jen, you're the best!
The reader cover is AWESOME. The girls DO get cuter and cuter. Love that last one of them looking at eachother.
thanks everyone! Such nice comments, makes a girl blush:)I love my reader cover so much that I literally can't stop looking at it. I'm looking at it while typing this...
In the picture of Emily playing with the reader, I keep thinking it's her real one! But it's not! It's the one I made! I'm just that good! he he he, I'm making myself laugh. Seriously, I do think it's her real one everytime I look at that picture.

Didi: I'm so happy you're going to make one too! I can't wait to see yours all embellished and pimped out:)

May (and everyone else): They do keep getting cuter and cuter and cuter and cuter. Just when you think it's not possible...:)
Your kids are adorable they look so similar in this picture! Your cover is totally fun! Hamburgers on the head... I dig it! I always seem to comment late! Oh well!
I love the eBook cover. Quit making stuff I wish I had!!!!!!
LOVE the ebook cover! Now that I have the touch version (which didn't come with a cover) and gave my mom the old one, I need a cover too. I hate the little pocket it comes with you know? Miss you Love you and wish you were here stateside. JennyBean
