Here's the little cover I made for my Little One's Christmas present. She is going to be so chuffed.
Started off with This: A blanket (or batting will do just fine) and some pretty contrasting material.
Cut out the blanket/batting a little bigger than the LeapPad, leaving enough for the flap.
Cut out both pieces of the Material, the same size as the batting. I left a little around the edges and trimmed it afterwards.
Stitch along the middle to quilt the pieces together.
Pretty on both sides.
Here's where I added the ribbon, for a pretty finish.
Strips of the Contrasting fabric for the Edging.
Edge the top and bottom before sewing the sides together.
Edge the sides and add the finishing touches - elastic and a button.
