Before you begin to sew a phone case from jeans, you should take measurements. Only with the size of the mobile phone, you can make a good accessory.
Materials for work
You will need the following materials:
- Scissors.
- Needle with thread.
- Button.
- Jeans and a piece of non-dense tissue of a different kind.
- Rubber cord.
Cutting and sewing:
- Cut out shreds of fabric, taking into account the size of the phone and allowances for seams.
- A denim fabric is needed for the outer part, and cotton or linen is for the inside.
- Both pieces of fabric need to be stitched from the wrong side. This is necessary so that the seams remain inside the accessory.
- Next, you need to unscrew the denim fabric and place it in a linen "bag".Do it in such a way that the linen fabric remains inside, and the jeans fabric is outside.
- Then sew the button on the front side of the accessory, and opposite we make a loop. These two small parts can protect the phone from damage.
Important! If the design seems boring to you, then you can paste crystals or some small applique. Thus, by performing a simple algorithm of actions, you can create a beautiful case for your phone from jeans with your own hands.

The technique of creating an accessory for a mobile phone with a pull-out ribbon is a little more complicated than sewing from denim material. However, if you follow the examples, in the end you can get quite a good and comfortable model:
- To begin with, you need to make a pattern for the future of the accessory. You should take a thick sheet of cardboard and circle your mobile phone on it. It is necessary to increase the size of the pattern, at least by 0.5 cm( taking into account the allowances for seams).
- From the material you like, we cut out two details on the pattern.
- Before sewing details, you can decorate them( buttons, pockets).
- Make a slot on the stitched accessory. The main rule - the length of the incision should be slightly more than the selected tape for a couple of millimeters.
- On the second piece, you also need to make cuts( only one, and not two).To do this, divide the shred into three equal parts. Thus, you can cut out the slots smoothly.
- We thread the tape into a part with one cut and stitched together, and its free end is cut into the lower cutout on the second part, and we take the tape out of the cutout on the top.
- We glue both parts with glue so that the places where the tape was stitched are hidden.
- We decorate the ribbon at our discretion.
All actions are very easy and simple, so creating such a model will not be difficult and does not require serious effort.
