Case for the camera

To make the cover, we will need some fur velor from an old sheepskin coat, thin padding polyester and Velcro, as well as any sewing machine, scissors, ruler, marker, tape, Moment glue and a glue stick.



The pattern was designed using FrontDesigner 3.0. To do this, I measured the length, width and height of the camera and added 0.5 cm on each side for the seam. I also decided to make a pocket for spare batteries.



I printed out the pattern and glued it together.




To check the correctness of the pattern design, I sewed a mock-up of the cover from thick fabric.




Next, I glued the pattern to the wrong side of the fabric, traced it with a marker and cut it out.




Let's start making a pocket for batteries. We make markings, cut out the corners and flap and sew the corners together using a sewing machine.





We mark the place where the pocket will be located and sew it on.





Next, we sew the cover flap from the wrong side and turn it inside out.




We cut out the padding polyester, coat the workpiece with Moment glue and glue the padding polyester to the workpiece.





We coat the edges of the workpiece with glue and glue our “sandwich”.




All that remains is to sew both sides on the sewing machine. We do this from the wrong side. To prevent the pocket flap from getting in the way, we glue it with tape.





Turn the cover right side out and sew Velcro onto the flaps.




The camera case is ready.
