✨ Quilted Fabric Sleeves in Magical Unicorn Print ✨
I’ve been having such fun in my sewing room lately! Using this adorable **pink unicorn print Cotton**, I created a matching set of **quilted fabric sleeves** — perfect for keeping your tablet, notebook, or sewing supplies safe and cozy.
Each piece is softly padded and quilted for durability, with a dreamy design featuring galloping unicorns and little clouds. The fabric itself just makes me smile — it’s whimsical, bright, and cheerful, adding a bit of magic to any day.
🧵 **Sewing details:**
* Outer fabric: Pink flannel with unicorn and cloud print
* Lining: Coordinating pastel cotton
* Batting: Lightweight quilt batting for structure
* Quilting: Simple straight-line stitching for a clean, classic look

Quilted Cosmetic, Overnight etc. Bag
Here’s a friendly and cozy blog post draft you could use for “Sewing With Shirley-Ann Pearman” or “Sewing, Quilting etc. By ShirleyAnn Pearman” — it fits beautifully with your warm, handmade style:
I recently finished this lovely quilted fabric bag, and I’m so pleased with how it turned out! It’s just the right size to use as a cosmetic bag, overnight tote, or even for keeping sewing notions together when traveling.
The soft quilted fabric gives it a cozy, padded feel, while the light cream background with coral and gold leaf-like patterns adds a gentle, elegant touch. 🌸
It features:
A zippered top closure to keep everything secure
Two sturdy quilted handles
A neat inside pocket for small essentials
Fully lined with matching fabric for a clean, finished look
I enjoyed making this one — it’s always satisfying when a project combines both practical use and pretty design.
Here are a few photos of how it turned out:

(Insert your three lovely photos here — front, side, and inside views.)
This was a simple but rewarding sewing project that can be made in different sizes or fabrics depending on how you plan to use it. I might try another one soon in a floral print for spring! 🌼
Have you made a quilted bag before? I’d love to hear what fabrics or styles you’ve tried.
Would you like me to adjust this post for your Sewing With Shirley-Ann Pearman blog (lavender–sage–beige tone) or for your Sewing, Quilting etc. blog (rose–mint–cream tone)? I can tailor the wording and style slightly to match your theme.
SEWING PROJECT:
KINDLE BAG OR SLEEVE
Sewing a book sleeve or bag for your Amazon Kindle is a great project for a beginner sewer. It's a simple and quick project that can be customized with your favorite fabrics and closures.
The most basic book sleeve is essentially a padded pocket. You will need three main pieces of fabric: an outer layer, a lining, and an inner layer of padding (like fusible fleece or batting).
1. Measure Your Kindle:
First, measure the width, height, and thickness of your Kindle.3 A sleeve should be big enough to easily slide the device in and out, but snug enough to hold it securely.4 A good rule of thumb is to add about 1 to 2 inches to your Kindle's width and height measurements to account for seam allowance and the thickness of the device.
Example: If your Kindle is 5 inches wide by 7 inches tall, you might cut your fabric pieces to be 6.5 inches wide by 8.5 inches tall.
2. Cut Your Fabric:
You will need to cut out the following pieces based on your measurements:
Outer Fabric: Two rectangles
Lining Fabric: Two rectangles
Padding (Fusible Fleece/Batting): Two rectangles (optional, but highly recommended for protection)
3. Prepare the Fabric:
Fuse the padding: If you're using fusible fleece, iron it onto the wrong side of your two outer fabric pieces. This will bond them together and provide a nice, protective layer. If you're using regular batting, you can baste the layers together with a few stitches or pins to hold them in place.
4. Sew the Outer and Lining Pieces:
Place the two outer fabric pieces right sides together.
Do the same for the two lining pieces, but be sure to leave a small opening (about 2-3 inches) along the bottom seam.
5. Assemble the Sleeve:
Leave the outer fabric sleeve wrong side out.
Turn the lining fabric sleeve right side out.
Insert the lining sleeve into the outer sleeve, so that the right sides of both fabrics are facing each other.
Align the top seams of the two layers and pin them together.
6. Sew the Top and Finish:
Sew around the entire top edge of the sleeve, securing the outer and lining layers together.
Trim the corners and any excess fabric to reduce bulk.
Carefully pull the entire sleeve through the opening you left in the lining.
Use a chopstick or a blunt tool to push out the corners so they are nice and sharp.
Press the top seam with an iron to give it a clean, finished look.
Finally, hand-stitch or machine-sew the opening in the lining closed.
Tuck the lining into the outer fabric to complete your sleeve.
You can easily modify this basic design to create a more personalized bag for your Kindle.
Closure:
Elastic and Button: Sew a loop of elastic into the top seam of the outer fabric and a button onto the front of the sleeve.
Velcro or Snap: Attach a piece of Velcro or a snap closure to a flap.
Zipper: For a more secure closure, you can install a zipper.
Pockets:
You can add an external pocket on the front of the sleeve for a charging cable, headphones, or a small notebook.
Quilting:
For a more durable and padded sleeve, you can quilt the outer fabric and batting together before sewing the pieces. This adds a nice texture and extra protection.
Handle/Strap:
To make your sleeve into a bag, you can sew a fabric handle or wrist strap and attach it to the side or top seam before you sew the layers together.
There are many free tutorials and patterns available online (on blogs, YouTube, and sewing pattern sites) that provide detailed measurements and instructions for various Kindle models and design variations.
