STEPS
TOOLS
Grab your basic supplies
Straighten out your fabric .. Sorry for the wrinkles :3
Place your ipod or phone / device .. A couple inches away from the bottom of the fabric
Cut a reasonable distance away from the device , enough to trim off afterwards
How it should look after cutting out
Take the ipod out of the case
And turn the case upside down
Take chalk or pencil , something that can rub/ wash off the fabric , and mark around the case
Sorry but i washed and pressed the fabric cause i forgot before , ... But u can still see the line of chalk
Okie , take what ever you can find to build your monster >.< , .. Usually two different size buttons as eyes look great
The rings in the last step can be replaced with just string
Mark where you want to put certain decorations
Im doing the eyes first , take your button and needle and thread
Thread it through the button holes and Make sure its tight and pull the fabric if it creases up
Stitch the second button onto the fabric
Now if you want to use the rings instead of the plain string and thread here's what to do
Take your pliers and open it
Then take your fabric and punch a hole through it with your needle
Push the ring through the hole and tighten it with the pliers
Put your string through the rings and tie at the ends of the last rings ,
If your using just string cut enough string so you can fold it
And keep on folding but measure it to the draw out on the fabric to make sure its not to long or not to short
Stitch your folded string onto the fabric any way u desire , in a smile , frown or angry , u can add eyebrows if u want to as well
Trim the fabric while sizing up to the case
Stitch stitch stitch
Stitch around the sides , .. If u can find a better way to get the fabric onto the case , u should do it
Finish , .. My bean bag monster , i'll apply fake blood and whatever , and nope this wasnt for halloween i just like this sorta stuff
Add fake blood , .. Use a marker on your fabric and put hot glue over it like so ---->
