fail

The other night when I got a chance to sit down at my sewing machine one of the things I wanted to make was a little case for my camera {since it lives in my handbag I thought it the responsible thing to do}.
I loved the way it turned out, it was just what I wanted.

Navy seersucker on one side and natural linen on the other with an image of a camera {in case I forget what is in it}. It has a handy little wrist strap and is padded with thick wadding stuff for extra protection.
One problem...

Fail.
The wadding made everything a little bit tight and my camera does not fit. I wanted it to fit safely and snuggle in and I didn't take into account the the wadding when measuring everything up. I really love my new camera case.
The solution.
Buy a new, slightly smaller, camera?

No, a coin purse I also made that night, that started off the same size, fits my camera in it perfectly {because there is no wadding taking up precious room}.
One more problem.

It is a coin purse so it has no wadding to protect my camera. It also has a clear plastic window. Oh well it will have to do and it least it protects my camera more then no case {and I can see what is in it just in case I forget}.
