Sewing a tablet sleeve: Beginner-friendly guide for a tablet case

A tablet is a great gift - but it becomes even more personal when you sew a unique and practical tablet sleeve to go with it!

By the way, it's very cool to sew the tablet sleeve out of homemade oilcloth!

The pattern, of course, fits many tablets of different brands. Simply measure the height and width, choose the appropriate pattern, and you're ready to go.

By the way, I also have a pattern for sewing a Kindle cover.

Which tablets does the tablet pattern fit?

What do I need to look out for when sewing the tablet sleeve?

Print the pattern at 100% page size without page scaling and assemble it according to the layout plan. Read through the instructions once before you start.
The seam allowance is already included in the pattern.

What batting can I use to sew the tablet sleeve?

I prefer to reinforce my tablet sleeve with Bosal. This is a foam-like fusible batting that adheres on both sides. It keeps the fabric nice and smooth and pads the case well at the same time. If you don't have Bosal, you can easily use Style-Vil or Thermolam instead.

Which tablet brands is the bag pattern suitable for?

The pattern is available in four sizes and, of course, fits many tablets of different brands. Simply measure the height and width, choose the appropriate pattern, and you're ready to go!

I come from Siegen-Wittgenstein, where I spent my childhood breaking in cows, jumping off haystacks and scraping a D- in needlework class.

Today, being creative feels like indescribable happiness to me – and it grows even more when I can share it with others. Since 2016 I have been celebrating my passion for sewing on this blog, and I love that sewing connects so many people.
