  Step 1

  Start by using chalk to outline your iPod (or phone etc.)

• 

  Step 2

  Repeat step one until you have four outlines.

• 

  Step 3

  Cut the fabric such that you have two outlines per section.

• 

  Step 4

  I also cut out a small section from the leg of the jeans (as it's already hemmed) to create a headphones pocket, but this step is completely optional.

• 

  Step 5

  Place your iPod in the centre of the fabric and fold it over. Then use a different colour of chalk to mark where your device ends.

• 

  Step 6

  Then use another colour of chalk to add a seam allowance, I used a 2.5cm allowance to allow for the bulk that the wadding will add.

  Then cut along these lines.

• 

  Step 7

  If you're adding a headphones pocket then on the right side of the fabric make a mark down the centre of the fabric.

  (Ignore the blue line, that was a mistake.)

• 

  Step 8

  Then fold over one edge of your pocket piece and stitch it down along the line.

• 

  Step 9

  Then trim off the excess.

• 

  Step 10

  Then position the studs as you want them on the front of the case, avoiding getting to close the edges.

• 

  Step 11

  Using the fabric pieces as a guide, cut out a piece of wadding to fit between the two denim sections.

• 

  Step 12

  Then stitch your two denim sections together along the top, I used a French seam, but a normal one would work just as well.

• 

  Step 13

  Next, pin the wadding between the denim, ensuring that the loose edges of the pocket are pinned into place.

• 

  Step 14

  Then fold the layers of fabric in half (with the studded and pocketed edges on the inside) and add a few more pins to keep everything in place.

• 

  Step 15

  Stitch around the edges making sure to go through all six layers.

• 

  Step 16

  Then turn the case the right way round.

• 

  Step 17

  At this point I decided to add a few studs to the top of the headphones pocket.

• 

  Step 18

  Then use an eyelet punch to add two eyelets to the top of each side.

• 

  Step 19

  Then use ribbon to lace the case shut, and you're done.
