I found this super cute fabric on Spoonflower and ordered a fat quarter. My mom loves dragons and I knew she’d adore it. I settled on making her a kindle pouch as she’s an avid reader.
The lining is a mottled medium blue that works well with the main fabric colors. I used stabilizer on the exterior and liner fabrics and some thin batting.
I tried quilting the exterior panels but ended up hating the messy look (I’m terrible at quilting). Instead I cut a new panel and just basted the edges.
It came out great!
Yes, it turned out nicely! Can you use the quilted panel to make a mug rug or coasters? It is such cute fabric to waste…I thought the quilting was fine!
@AntBee - thank you!
@AIMR - thank you! Excellent suggestion on making the quilted section into a mug rug! That can be the first new item on my 2026 to-craft list!
I agree with Linda, the quilting is fine. Make something fun with it!
Great work on the kindle case too!
It’s SUPER!!! It’s a dragon cave and hoard keeper of excellence!! 
Tihs is a very thoughtful gift and it turned out so cute! And yeah, what the others have said about using that quilted piece!
Thank you, @TheMistressT, @MistressJennie , and @Harlan!
The quilted piece will be made into something for sure. I hate wasting anything, but especially pretty fabric!
Your mom sounds cool! Hope she likes it! The dragon’s are adorable.
Thank you! She loved it.
I’m jumping in on the “quilting looks fine, make something with it” bandwagon 
Great job on the kindle case too!
Congratulations! Your beautiful creation is a Featured Project this week! What a great way to ring in the New Year. 
Thank you!
This is so cute! Adorable fabric- of course your mom loved it!!
Thanks! She’s been using it a lot so that’s a definite bonus.
