Lil Pip Sew Box Purse - how to make a glasses case

Is a glasses case dorky? Is it very granny to make one with a metal frame clasp? Do I even care or do I love the fabrics my 8yo boy selected for me!! ("You love purple mummy").


To make this one I used the square bottom pattern. I extended the bottom by 3 inches (I just placed my glasses on top and eyeballed it). I then extended the side line from top to bottom. Just make sure you don't change the shape a the top so it still fits the frame (basically from the curve point at the top, draw an angle line to the bottom). 

I also used the fusible webbing on the outer but possibly should for the lining too. Just for extra padding. I'll be careful about where I use this and not just throw it in my handbag. 

You could also put quilting lines on this too which would be quite cool. 


What do you think? Will you make a glass case for yourself? Can we make them cool again? Together. Please lol

Don't forget to share on social media (I love Instagram!) using the hashtag #lilpipsewboxpurse and check back tomorrow for my last variation to try.
