Sunny Sunglass Case

Greetings friends! The BRD studio has been buzzing with new ideas and projects...and my desk is covered in creative ideas, new designs, sketches, piles of paper, product swatches/photos, and a giant planning calendar. All of this has me hopeful, encouraged, and excited for Blue Ribbon Designs. 

Today is new project tutorial day - time to share my May project created for the Therm O Web blog with you. I always enjoy putting on my Fabric Education Designer hat and creating new projects/tutorials using incredible products from Therm O Web. For the month of May, the blog is focused on home decor, garden-themed projects, on-the-go cases and organizers, and gifts for graduates. I created a brand new project that was posted on Monday - it is a complete project tutorial for my "Sunny Sunglass Case." My comprehensive tutorial contains a complete supply list, printable templates, and step-by-step directions with color photos. 

This pretty and protective case for your sunnies is quick and easy and uses minimal materials. It is a perfect afternoon sewing project and works great with scraps and/or your favorite fabric collection. HeatnBond Fusible Fleece makes it soft and sturdy and the HeatnBond Lite EZ-Print Iron-On Adhesive Sheets make the applique super simple. Print the template shapes directly on the HeatnBond Lite Adhesive using your inkjet printer (no tracing required!). I used some bright and cheerful colors of Benzie Design Wool Blend Felt for the appliqué motifs. A happy summertime project that is easily adaptable and makes a great gift that can be personalized for any recipient.

You will have to visit the Therm O Web blog for my complete tutorial and pattern, but I am posting a few photos here...

You will be surprised how quickly this pretty and practical project comes together. It is perfect for using up those scraps and small pieces of fabric - I opted to use the Keep Shining Bright Collection by Anne Rowan for Wilmington Prints and Chambray Tonals from Connecting Threads for the cases and Benzie Design Wool Blend Felt for the appliqués. For this post, I used the following Therm O Web products:

• HeatnBond Lite EZ-Print Iron-On Adhesive Sheets, 8.5 in x 11 in
• HeatnBond Fusible Fleece
• HeatnBond Fabric Fuse Liquid Adhesive

Visit the tutorial post for a complete and detailed supply list. 

To find the exact tools and supplies listed, visit my Sunny Sunglass Case List on Amazon (full disclosure: as an Amazon Influencer, I earn from qualifying purchases - I only share products I actually use - and I truly appreciate you shopping from my links, thank you!). 

If you have questions on any Therm O Web or HeatnBond/SpraynBond products or would like to see a specific type of product in one of my projects, drop me a comment or email.

I hope this project gets you excited to create a Sunny Sunglass Case to keep your favorite sunglasses protected and stored in style!

I am creating monthly projects for the Therm O Web Blog and I will be sure to post here when I have a new tutorial available. My next project is scheduled to be on the Therm O Web blog on June 17th. Plus, I am taking part in the Frost and Flurry Fabric Tour for Poppie Cotton on June 18th....and my first tutorial post for Benzie Design will be live on their website on June 3rd! 

Thank you for stopping by for a visit today - I always enjoy sharing my projects with you. Have a great week and make time to work on something creative...
