This was SUCH a fun project to put together, and I am in love the final product- a completely modern, funky little sleeve to keep my iPad, iPhone, and iPod (iLikeApple?) all safe and cozy in my handbag.
I just love Craftsy's new workshop section, so it was an extra thrill to create one for them! The workshops are very detailed online patterns with tons of photos, interactive community forums for posting questions & comments, and a gallery to show off your finished project. Mine lays out the pattern in 6 sections, with over 60 super clear photos and detailed step-by-step instructions.
You likey? Wanna make one?....or a dozen to gift to friends and family next month? Craftsy is offering the workshop at a discounted $11.99 right now, BUT this post would be no fun without a giveaway! I'm giving away 3 free workshops!
Here's how to win one:
Follow my blog (if you aren't already) and leave a comment to this post saying who you'd make an iTote for. On Monday 11/21, I'll have Random.org pick 3 winners for free enrollment in the workshop! **For an extra chance to win, post about my iTote on Twitter and/or FB, and leave another comment telling me you did!
Oh, and make sure you're not a no-reply blogger too, so I can contact you if you win!
Thanks for stopping by, and Happy Friday everyone!

Oh my gosh! There are so many ipad sleeves available, but THIS, oh boy, THIS is my favorite!! I'd make it for myself (even though I have no ipad, a girl can be prepared if one ever came my way), and I'd definitely make it for my brother. So cute!! And, of course, I follow your blog!

I check your blog faithfully every morning. I would love this for my daughter, who had her iPhone stolen from her on 10/11/10 and had to buy a new one.
Brilliant! I would make one for my Dad because he's the only person I know who has an ipad!
I love this and if I had one the hubs surely would buy me an IPad!

It's such a cute little pouch! I love it, Amy! What a week you're having! I follow you, and if I make one, I actually have at least two crafty friends who'd love it, or maybe my mom...
Love this iTote !!! I really really want to make one =]
Love this bag. It is just what I need.
I'm a follower and well ... I think I'd make an iTote for ME! And then I'd HAVE to get an iPad, wouldn't I? Love the pockets on the outside. Handy.
Follower of your blog! And I would make an iTote for my sweet mother! She has mad handbags, purses, quilts, and wallets galore for me growing up, whenever I found a pattern that I HAD to have! This is something SHE would adore and I would enjoy sharing with her!
Just a quick note to let you know that a link to this post will be placed on CraftCrave today [19 Nov 02:00am GMT]. Thanks, Maria

I'd like to make an itote case for myself first & then one for my mil. I'm a follower! Thanks for a chance to win! :)
my mother in law of course lol she loves home made stuff
I would make this for my husband in masculine fabric. He travels all of the time and just puts his iPad in his bag and I am afraid it is going to get scratched up. So cute!
I don't have any of these toys (yet) so I'd make it for my sister!
What a great idea! I'd have to make one for my daughter, step-daughter and 2 older granddaughters. Thanks!
Perfect for my granddaughter's December birthday - in animal prints I think!!
I like to make this tote for my daughter. We lost our business in the economy and went bankrupt then our oven stop working for four months. She and my step up give us money every month to eat and help buy my medication because my hubby and I or on Medicare. My daughter brought us a new oven just in time for the holiday then she paid our back car loan payment which was 3 months behind. She deserve this tote this is the only thing besides love I can do for her and my other daughter and never complain about giving to help her parents.
I'd like to make one for my son. I'm giving him my iPad for Christmas.
I have turned into a real gadget girl, I have a Kindle, I-pod and smart phone so this would be wonderful. I take them everywhere with me so I could really use one of these. I hope I win otherwise I will have to find some funds from somewhere.
Even though I don't own an iPad (yet), I'd first make it for a friend of mine that has worked with me at a convention every year for the past 4 years and has always stepped up and taken on more than I schedule her for and jumps in when I need an extra hand. Also to give her a hand with keeping track of it since she took to putting it in my gear bag whenever she wasn't using it.
I would like to make one for myself, then make a few for other teachers at my school who have iPads.
I would love to make one for myself. I am a Speech Pathologist that travels between schools. It would also be great to make some for my fellow SLP's who travel also. They would make great Christmas gifts.
I shared this on facebook, too.
I would make this for my best friend, who is getting an ipad for Christmas. We always give each other practical home-crafted Christmas presents, and she would love this.
I would make one for me and maybe for my hubby! Very cute tote!!
Jenny in Florida
I would make this for my co-worker who is always so giving of herself!
I would make one for my DH he deserves it
I would make one for my boss, the lady who has everything.
I would make one for my daughte-in-law.She would love this!
Ooh hope I'm not too late! This looks fantastic! I'd make one for my lovely step-dad for Christmas to hold all the igadgets he's aquired!
I would make one for myself. But that would lead to friends wanting one, so I would give mine away and make another one, give that away, and make another one...
I love the pockets on it!!
I would make one for my daughter who is going to College in Edmonton, Alberta Canada. She works so hard and this would be an awesome Christmas gift for her. She goes to school full time and works casual at a Nursing Home. This would be very special for me to make one for her. Thanks!!
I'd make an iTote for me, of course! I love Craftsy, and that tote is so cute. I know my Mom would want an iTote, too.
I'd make one for me and my mom. It's sooooo great. Thanks for the chance to win but if I don't I'll have to make it anyway.

I would love to make this iTote for my daughter-in-law. She received an I-Pad for Christmas. Then I would like to make one for me, just in case I ever get an I-Pad, too. I am also enjoying your BOM class on Craftsy. You are a very good teacher.
