BINDER CASE / BINDER SLEEVE

BINDER CASE / BINDER SLEEVE


 
My son, who is a 5th grader now, is allowed to use binders this year. He has to carry them daily to school. It has sharp corners which may tear the bag at the bottom within some days. As we all know the famous saying ' A stitch in time saves nine', I thought of making a 'binder sleeve' or 'binder case/cover' to hold the binder and prevent the tearing of bag as well. I had so many ideas for a girl's binder but had to think for ideas and colors for a boy. So I chose black fabric, quilted it and made an appliqué of a bike on the center, attached a contrasting red colored zipper to add some brightness as well.
