Step 7 Sew on Pop Buttons

You don't want the iPod to fall out the end so we need to secure it in, i thought about using a normal button but they are fiddly and i wanted to be able to open with one hand.

So I decided to use pop buttons, you just sew either side on. I decided to use two pop buttons so it was secure.

GET A THIMBLE, its like a little metal thing you put on your finger, i only found out about these little wonders after i put the needle under my nail 3 TIMES Believe me it hurts and it keeps hurting. Get one.

Do the buttons scratch the phone when sliding it in and out? You could probably make the strip longer by a couple inches and use Velcro, so it folds over and seals on the outside. This way you won't scratch your screen up.

I have one of those super strong screen protectors, but yes you should be carefull

I thought so too...not the coarse velcro though, my Zen armband has a really soft and gentle velcro with shorter 'hooks' that are less dangerous than the traditional 'long and scary (to the beautiful screens of beautiful things) hooks'.
