Covering the resist with layers of wool roving.
The back of the closed cover...
...and the opened front.

The finished cover in use.
After I made a cover for my daughter's Kindle...
...I decided to make one for myself, too!
I used pale orange and yellow wool for the exterior...
...and deep blues and greens for the interior.
When it was finished, I thought that the blended colors cooked a little drab...
...so I did some machine embellishment to jazz it up! :)
Using a Lucet tool, I made a short braid for the loop closure...
...and paired it with a wonderful 'citrus cross section' vintage button from my stash.
