don't say that three times quickly, you could get your tongue twisted! it was time to give my trusty digital camera a squishy cover to protect it from rattling around in the bottom of my bag with all the other stuff that i keep in there (you know; crochet hooks, paint chips, books, plastic cutlery). i thought i'd give the sewing machine a workout after neglecting it for the last few months while i've been obssessed with crochet.

i found some sturdy sanderson linen curtains waiting to be recycled, used a favourite sheet for the lining and some leftover wadding for the sandwich. the design was based on a clutch pattern found in a library book called
Mixed Mania. i did some freeform quilting in contrasting thread, added some appliques cut from scrap fabric and used a magnetic snap for closure.

now the camera's safe and sound, i wonder what else i can make a cosy for?
