I've been wanting to make a cover for my camera strap because 1. its ugly, sorry Cannon, it is. 2. I hate the rubbery non-slip backing that it has on my neck, feels so gross to me. So knowing I would have some leftovers from the hair bow frame project I bought a pretty fuzzy fleece blue, that makes an amazing amount of lint when cut, to go with it so that I could finally make a cover for that ugly thing.

And because I forget to take pictures while I am in the middle of sewing, heres the finished result. I was going to put a ruffle of a different color fabric on it, but it took me forever to figure out how to make ruffled fabric with my sewing machine. When I finally perfected it my fabric I had ruffled was too wide and I didn't feel like starting over!

The fuzzy blue is a lot more comfortable on the neck and much more fashionable. And I won't lie I was not
measuring or pinning rushing and its not perfect, that blue is some slippery stuff. It still looks better than those big Cannon EOS letters, and if I didn't tell you you wouldn't know. Someday when I don't have a screaming child, and I have a pair of scissors worth cutting fabric with I may try another one with some different fabric.
