A nice little #leatherwork project this morning was a case for my #XTEINK X4 ereader. I didn't take many photos of the build process, but I started with cutting the bottom panel of leather to size in cutting some slots for a strap on the back. Then glued in some stiff white plastic so that the MagSafe ring had something to stick to.
The plastic/leather were then punched for stitching holes and saddle stitched all the way around.

Things went pretty well, and the #XTEINK X4 fits lovely, and can be easily used in portrait or landscape mode. The leather is very soft and flexible, so the tab on the top didn't push through the flap on the back too easily. I added another plastic offcut and this works fine now. I'll see how that lasts, but I might need to stitch that in place too.

@0x47df It'll be perfect for something like that. And not too difficult to make either.
