A digital PDF pattern for crafting a leather glasses case shaped like a capsule. A totally new approach to glasses cases which are mostly classical in design.

- The first model is more suitable to be used for carrying around reading glasses while the second one will very adequately accommodate a pair of sunglasses.
- We used about two square feet of 5-6 oz ( ~ 2 mm ) thick vegetable tanned leather and about 600 mm of zipper.
- The one from the foreground requires a 230 mm zipper and the other one needs a 350 mm long one.
- In the same order as above, they measure respectively about 170 x 60 x 55 ( 6.7 x 2.3 x 2.2 inches ) and 195 x 80 x 60 ( 7.7 x 3.1 x 2.3 inches ).
- We used contact cement to secure the zippers before sewing so you may find it useful too.
- If this is your first project then you will find more information and the tools needed in the intro file.
💡 The absolute minimum tools you'll need for this project are a cutter ( box opener ), a metal ruler, a mallet, a 2 and a 4 mm punch, two blunt needles and a cutting mat. We use masking tape to prepare the pattern and always sew with 1 mm waxed thread. That's short and sweet but please PM us for more info if you're just starting out.
💡You may print this pattern at Actual size on any of the following paper types: US Letter, A4-A0, Legal and Ledger / Tabloid by selecting the US_Letter format from your printing options.

Cooles Schnittmuster, man muss beim Reissverschluss genau arbeiten - das Ergebnis kann sich aber auf jeden Fall sehen lassen 😎

Forme de gabarit un peu trop ronde et haute. N'a pas donné l'effet recherché.
