Hello friends, it is Jennifer Long – Bee Sew Inspired, back today to share with you a tutorial I designed based on necessity (I need a pretty Ipad case) and for fun, using the Granny Squares I stitched up with Lori Holt and the Fat Quarter Shop last month. Read about the Granny Square SAL HERE.
To me, the Ipad is a very important part of my sewing and creative daily life! Not only do I use it to view my PDF patterns, reading blogs and tutorials and social media, but I use it for drawing and designing as well – and it definitely needs to be protected in a fun and pretty way!
This summer, with all 4 teens and preteens home and going in different directions for work, baseball and softball, swim team, beach days and more, I need to stay even more organized and I want to take my Ipad with me so I can draw while I sit by the pool or at the ball diamond.
I opted to swap out (4) 2 1/2″ squares for some Granny Square Cross Stitch Squares. Lori Holt is running a fun Granny Square SAL all summer and I just love the handmade feel and dimension the cross stitch squares give. I used Lori Holt’s Vintage Cloth 14-count in Barely Pink and Lori Holt’s Bee Basic AuriFloss. To find out more or grab the FREE Cross Stitch pattern click HERE.
