Levi's iPhone jacket

Levi\
In this Instructable, I will show you how to turn any old trousers (Yes, the title says Levi's, but this works with any other trousers, too - I don't even wear jeans) into an iPhone or iPod Touch jacket.

Step 1What you need

What you need
Here is a list of what you need:

1) Old trousers. Did I mention that they aren't wearable any more when they hold your iPhone? Now you know.

2) Scissors. To cut out the pattern.

3a) Needle and thread. Don't use a thin thread - it should be something that doesn't rip easily.
or
3b) A sewing machine.

4) White chalk or something to draw on the cloth. You can erase white chalk, that's why it's good, but you can also use a simple pen. You won't see the lines any more, anyway.

5) An iPhone or iPod Touch. That your jacket is worth being made.

This is a great project, I suggest adding a picture of the final thing as your first image, just to show it off to browsers better in the thumbnail! I like how you mode the most of the pattern.
