I just bought an iTouch after running out of space on my iPod! I am excited about making a cover for it using your tute! Thanks!

This looks awesome. My husband just got his own iPod touch and I can’t wait to try this out.

Hi Robyn, I tried your tutorial today and blogged and linked back to you. I changed a couple of things (due to the fabric being cut already) – but all in all it worked out nicely. Your tute photos make it all very clear – well done!

Hey Jabba,

The pouch fits the iPhone width-wise, but not length-wise (the iPhone is a wee bit taller than the iPod Touch and sticks out at the top). The answer to this question is slightly complicated by the fact that the different generation iPods all measure a bit differently. That said, I have made iPhone covers before and I believe I used about 11″ long pieces. Should work!

My advice? Measure the circumference of the iPhone the long way around (that is, take a flexible tape measure, and wrap it around the long way). Add one inch to it (for the 1/2 inch seam allowances at each end), and that’s about how long your lining and exterior pieces should be. Good luck!

As far as manly fabric – that’s ALWAYS the hardest part! Something geometric might work, and if all else fails, solid colors aren’t the worst, but kind of uninspired…

I’d love to see what you come up with!

Great tutorial! I have been looking for a good iPod cover for a while but up until now, I have been unimpressed with the tutorials/styles I’ve seen so far. This one takes the cake, I’ll definitely be trying this out
