Camera Strap

I just love this new camera strap I made. I've been wanting one for the longest time, but haven't sat down to figure it out and just do it. I had a friend request one for her mom's birthday, so I ended up with the proto-type and this one was for her mum.

I found the Cameras in Teal fabric from Hawthorne Threads. It is from the Spring 2010 line by Etsuko Furuya. The fabric was to die for - a heavier weave of linen. Very sturdy with excellent color quality. I can't wait to grow a stash big enough for an entire quilt out from this designer.

The strap is actually a sleeve that just slides over your camera strap, much prettier than the generic one on your camera now - as well as having way more cushion for your neck! This one has a backing of black 'minky' or 'fur' fabric as well as some extra padding for extra cushion.

I just love it and can't wait to make another! By the way - this was my new use for french seams. No exposed frays on the inside of this cover~! I think I may need a few to switch out depending on season and mood!
