I made this cover for a Xoom tablet using the same concept as the Kindle cover. Using
Chica and Jo's calculations at the end of their instructions, one can make a cover for any size device. This one I added a handle per my husband's request. Since this was for a male, what better material to use than men's clothing...two shirts from Salvation Army store on a buy one get one free day and a pair of shorts (for the handle).
I added some fiberfill batting this time for extra cushioning, adding it when sewing and trimming it off close to the seam.
The handle is about a 4" wide trip with the sides folded into the center, then folded in half, tuck in the ends, and top-stitched down both sides. When sewing on the handle, I put iron-on interfacing on the back side of cover for reinforcement, and stitched a square with an X inside on each end.
