- To determine what size to
cut your fleece, you will first need to measure your phone
or camera. In the sample I am making a cell phone
cover but the instructions are the same for both the camera
and the phone. My phone is 2" wide by 4" tall. Add 1"
to the width and 1 3/4" to the height (2" + 1" = 3"; 4" + 1
3/4" = 5 3/4") so cut 2 pieces of fleece that are 3" x 5
3/4".
-
 Take
one of the pieces of fleece and lay it on your work surface
with the right side facing up and so that it looks tall and
skinny. Turn down the top 1 1/2" as pictured and baste in
place on both sides.
- Take your second piece of
fleece and repeat step #2 only this time start with it wrong
side up. Many fleece fabrics do not have a right and
wrong side. They basically look the same on both sides.
If this is the case with your fabric, don't worry about the
right or wrong side of the fabric.
- Pin the two pieces of
fleece together with right sides together. The flap on both
pieces should at the top and be facing in the same
direction.
- Using 1/4" seam allowance,
stitch the three raw sides together. The top of the case
(the end with the folds) will remain unstitched.
- Clip the bottom corners and
right side out.
 To
use, simply drop your phone or camera into the case and fold the
flap over so the phone or camera doesn't slip out.
Hint: Fleece stretches in one
direction. You should cut the fleece so that it is
stretchy in the skinny direction. If not, it might be more
difficult to put your camera/phone into the case.

Once
your camera or phone is in the case, flip
the top flap over to keep it from sliding
out.
