Blueprint, 2006
"This is a great project for an ultrasuede scrap and after you've made one, you may find yourself making them for all of your friends," says Blueprint's Katie Hatch.
Tools and Materials
9-by-3 5/8-inch piece of fabric
Mini scissors
Erasable fabric marker
Sewing machine or needle and thread
iPod Case How-To
1. Print the pattern (for 30GB and 60GB models); cut out rectangle and circle. Use this pattern for the Nano model.
2. Pin onto the fabric, and trace openings with the marking pen (to get a perfectly smooth circle, trace a spool of thread); cut out.
3. Fold fabric in half end to end, pin and sew, using a 1/4-inch seam allowance.

You could also just photocopy your mp3: instant pattern!
You can measure any MP3 player for the size and cut out the screen and the player buttons to make one that is custome for any MP3. I had planned on doing this for my kids MP3's for months and I am going to sit down with them this weekend and they can help me make these for them. It's a great project with kids!
Could you add a pattern for the new smaller Nano? Thanks for the great idea!
