  • Give your phone the rest it deserves! You will always know were it is and it's easy to see in the upright position. This is a quick and easy project using very little fabric.

    OMG, I was looking through the video list and saw this one was Severn years ago. WHERE THE HELL DID 7 YEARS GO!! I watched this one just after you posted it. I cannot believe I gave been watching you for 8 years...wow

    I have made an iPad version of this for my dad, but hadn’t seen the concept of the weighted inner bag. That’s a great idea! I’ll be making some of these as gifts for Christmas. Thank you 😁👍

    Agreed yous was the best I have seen.
    One idea I added, was a loop for charging cord. Also seen one as a pin cushion for sewing, as I watch alot you tube projects. Thank you, great clear voice video!

  • @cherylbelnap685
    @cherylbelnap685 Před 4 lety +4

    These are great! I've made several of them. When I add the pellets I put a bunch of them in a large bowl and then I hold the bag over the bowl and scoop the pellets in the bag with a measuring cup. So the pellets that miss the bag fall back into the bowl. Much easier than a funnel.

  • @paintilludrop
    @paintilludrop Před rokem

    Well, late to the party! I just discovered these neat little holders! I chose your easy process..getting ready to make for Christmas gifts.. like you said, need one for every room!
    Clear voice..no need to show sewing, and love no music.
    Following you!!

  • @lynnl6101
    @lynnl6101 Před 3 lety +3

    Thank you Laura. I too made mine an inch wider and also added 1/2 inch for a larger seam allowance on the stand and the top. It made it easier for me to close those seams. I also added a light weight interfacing to the fabric. I too have made them for Christmas gifts this year. Wonderful clear instructions as always.

  • @craftcrumbs
    @craftcrumbs Před 3 lety +6

    Once again, excellent tutorial! I made this phone pillow using the dimensions given and it's too small. I can really only use it when positioning my phone horizontally. Vertically my Samsung S8+ falls off. I made another and added 3" all the way around. My phone now rests on it beautifully no matter the orientation. I love that I can alter the size without compromising the design. Thank you!

    • @lynneferraccio8843
      @lynneferraccio8843 Před rokem

      I love it too. My phone lays horizontally great but is too heavy to sit upright. So I think I will make it a tad bigger and the pellets are great due to pests but seem to not be heavy enough. But I love the way Laura teaches!!!!!!!1

    • @alexandradombrowski4915
      @alexandradombrowski4915 Před 5 měsíci

      @CRAFTcrumbs: Yes, your Samsung must be bigger than Laura's. Mine, too, and heavier. So, ty for your comment--I was going to add an inch, but after reading yours, I think I'll add a couple more, just to be safe haha.

  • @copperbuttons7376
    @copperbuttons7376 Před 7 lety +2

    Wow! Thank you so much, Laura. This, and possibly a larger size for a reader, is now my choice for Christmas gifts. I was racking my brain to find something that I can multiples of (with different fabric chosen for each recipient) but that would be fast and easy. I like how these look like a million bucks but are quick and fun to do. I'm now considered the friend/relative who gives fun sewn gifts so the pressure is always on to give something practical yet really nice. You're a life-saver.-Carol S.

    These phone pillows were such a hit with my friends for Christmas this year. I took your advice and made several for myself. One, I made one of those cute little funky chickens that you see online of this similar shape. I've been requested to make some for tablets, iPads and cookbooks. I have to figure out what I want to add to keep your place while using it for recipe books.
    One improvement I made was to sew a buttonhole in the little space between the pillow part and the front smaller pillow. It is easiest to add the buttonhole before you stuff the front pillow. Result: a place to run your charger cord through it so as to charge your phone etc while you have your phone on the pillow. If I use a thinner fabric for the pillows, I add iron on interfacing or batting. SO MANY ways to make this little gem...
    I use my phone pillows to watch CZcamss and movies while I'm sewing or at my desk. The front pillow makes for an excellent pincushion when needed.
    Thank you Laura!

    wonderful tutorial, thank you. I will be making a few with my grandson's help. My daughter is a cake decorator and uses her phone to refer to and this will be so much better for her than leaving the phone lying flat. Can't wait to make some. Also will try to increase the measurements to make one for my tablet to use in the caravan while on holidays.

      @beverlymartin1414 Před 3 lety +1

      You are correct. On the directions Laura did not say a rich on both lines which is needed BUT your 3/4" is much better. Laura was not clear as others questioned it too. Thanks! I am a bit late to this party but have plenty of time at home during "covid". Off I go .

    Thank you so much for this tutorial. I just keep making them as gifts. Not only does everyone use them, but they think I'm a genius. When the pellets become costly, I just use stuffing instead. Works just as well.

    I enjoyed your video how to make a phone pocket. Your instructions were clear and simple. I would like if possible measurements for an Ipad holder that would be nice thank you for sharing your video I loved it
