DDs How to Make Easy Tablet/iPad Cover with Handles and a Zipper Pocket

[@heleneikerenkotter2950]

Do you think cutting the foam interfacing a half inch shorter where the zipper will lay would be helpful in eliminating the bulk instead of cutting it away ? I hesitate to trim thru a zipper edge . This particular zipper is going to be heavily used . I have never used this foam where there is a zipper insert. What do you think ? The foam has been anchored in seams handle areas and pocket . I love your your tablet cover . Thank you so much.

I just made this cover for a friend's upcoming birthday...I think that she'll love it. Thanks so much for this great video!

[@rhondacherry4142]

This is absolutely a wonderful bag and a great video. The You Tube video makes it so easy to stop and start. LOVE IT

[@elainelawson7472]

I have watched numerous videos on making a bag for a tablet or I pad. I am choosing this one to make for my grandson because of the simplicity and great instructions. It's just a perfect bag for a computer!

Thank you for this pattern and great video. Would there be an easy way to add a shoulder strap to this bag?

[@tillyswansea3137]

Nicole, I love the fabric you are using for your bag!

[@annamariamarchese5185]

I have just finished making your bag for my U3A classes and it turned out beautifully thanks to your clear and precise instructions. I made my bag 1 and a half inches wider and longer because I have a cover for my iPad…..so glad I did because it’s nice and roomy to fit other documents too. So, so pleased with it….thank you Darvanalee!!

[@darvanaleedesignsstudio]

Oh that makes me so very happy, and I am glad that you were able to customise it to suit your needs :) Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment your time is appreciated and I look forward to seeing your name pop up again in the near future

[@vickylin5126]

thank you so much for this tutorial. this is exactly what I'm looking for. will definitely be making an once. i just love to the people colour!

[@jesspeak7543]

Thank you for sharing such a great pattern. I love your choice of fabrics.

[@CoffeeCrazy]

Thank you for mentioning the type of interfacing. Most do not and it makes it difficult to to how stiff the product should be! By the way beautiful fabric.

[@darvanaleedesignsstudio]

You are so welcome!

[@joannawarren1485]

I'm a little late to the game but I just made this and it is so cute. I will note to also add extra to your handles if you tablet is wider than the 6" you used in your video. I can get my hands through the loops but it is snug (mine is 7" wide).

[@joyscranfield5527]

Great little bag for my tablet! TY for showing how to construct it. Your fabric is so beautiful & colorful exactly what I need. O, matching laptop & tablet cases...what do you think?

[@beckamojo]

This was briliant, I am off to make a bag, thank you x

[@gloriavella3025]

Hi Nicole I love your video and I have done 4 of these bags I love them so in to them I keep doing bag after bag Hope you can help with this I need to do one size is 13x11 can you tell me what size should I cut for the box corners please thank you Gloria

[@darvanaleedesignsstudio]

I would possibly do a 1.5" boxed corner that will give you approximately a 3inch flat bottom. I hope that helps :)

[@JD-fo2pr]

😁EXCELLENT JOB👋👋👋 THANK YOU😁

[@jayneevanderheym352]

Thank you for spending the day with me. Lol Great tutorial! Was so easy to follow. Made my husband Essendon Bombers tablet pouch. Lol. My DNA was left inside..lol. Forgot those pins you told us not to forget..lol The pouch came out way better than I expected. Thank you again. 😊

[@gloriavella3025]

Hi Nicole I done two iPad bags I’m happy with the results the only thing that didn’t work for me is the zipper tab it’s not flat like your I followed step by step with your video what do I need to do to get it done right hope to hear from you thanks Gloria

[@darvanaleedesignsstudio]

The only advice l can give is seam allowance is key for zipper tabs...and lengthen you stitch lenght to 3.0 or 3.5 depends on the machine...sometimes if your stitch length is too small it won't turn correctly...and really push them out...may i suggest start with a smaller zip pouch such as my Flat bottom makeup bag till you get the hang of them...you can also make the tabs a little longer too...l have found that some have found this helpful. I hope this helps you...thank you for watching

[@gloriavella3025]

Thanks Nicole that’s helps a lot Gloria

I used your measurements but it was too small at the zipper top. Going to start over with wider top measurements.

The pattern for the bag on your web only shows item to buy, nothing on the instructions on the second page. Love your videos. Etsy, Instagram and Pinterest don’t open either.
