Felt iPhone Cover



A while ago I saw this felt phone cover.  
I've said before and I'll say again......I can't sew!  But I know someone who can ;)
My Mom! 


(The phone fits all the way down inside.  I just pulled it out a bit for the photo)
We sat down together and planned out the color scheme so that I knew how many and of what color to  make all of my die cuts.  Then I handed it all off to her.  Well yesterday she finished it.  Isn't it just gorgeous?  I love it. 
Thanks Mom!

Beautiful. In addition to the die cut flowers, I love the embroidery & french knots.
The colors are gorgeous too. Your mom did an awesome job.

I laughed when I read that you don't sew but you know someone who does, as I could have written those same words, haha! I made some of Dawn's coffee cozies, but she sewed them all for me! Yay for moms that sew! This is just amazing, by the way. Love the arrangement of flowers.

OHHh love this! Saw it on Pinterest. I might try one with my Stampin' Up Flower Fun die! I saw a lady selling them in England but they are pricey, Very cute, only I can't sew! I will learn just for these though!
