Cozy Construction and Care

Protect your Kindles, Ipads, Scrap-booking (Cricut, Silhouette, Xyron), Binding and Laminating machines from those nasty little dust bunnies with a lovely cozy that is guaranteed to fit like a glove! Each cozy features pretty, coordinating fabrics (100% cotton) that have been machine-quilted over a layer of batting and muslin lining. All seams have been finished and the binding has been hand-basted. A button, bow, or applique embellishment adds a delightful finishing touch to each cozy. Your Cozy will certainly be a pretty addition to any work space, and will keep your Cricut Expressions/Cakes, Creates/Personal Cutters, Cuttlebugs, Gypsies, Imagines, Kindles, and Ipads free from dust, scratches, and normal wear-and-tear and damage for years to come! All cozies may be machine or hand-washed in cold water. Line dry or use low heat when drying in a clothes dryer. A cool iron may be used, if necessary. INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING INQUIRIES WELCOME. Orders will be shipped via USPS within 10-14 days of payment, and in most cases sooner. Click on pics to enlarge.

For the Queen of Her Craft Room...

If you are the Queen of your craft room, then you're really going to like this Cozy! I must admit, this has to be my most elegant Expression Cozy to date. It features Michael Miller fabrics (Did I ever mention that Michael Miller is my FAVORITE fabric designer??) that have a pearly sheen. The gold tones in the fabric sparkle and complement the pendant beautifully.

You know...if Kate Middleton owned a Cricut, I'm sure she'd love this Cozy! Kate...if you're out there reading my blog...my email is bckpiano@yahoo.com ;)

Here's a close-up shot of the embellishment.

IT'S HERE!!! NEW EXPRESSION 2 COZY!!!!

It's here! The much-anticipated Expression 2 Cozy! After a failed attempt to make an Expression 2 Cozy over the weekend, (I won't even post the picture...it's kind of embarrassing! lol) I think I finally found a pattern that I am very happy with. I really like the look of the original Expression Cozies, so I decided to make this one look as much like them as possible.

To start off, I kept the middle strip the same width as the original Expression. But as you can see, the profile is somewhat different from the original. The middle had to be slightly higher and the ends had to be slightly lower than the Original E. So, some tapering was in order.


"What's with this fabric? Are those skulls I see?" When Raquel asked me to make a "Girly Skull" Cozy, I was a little surprised. :) I had, in the past, made pig Cozies, ladybug Cozies, dog Cozies, Butterfly Cozies...and definitely lots of floral Cozies. But...skulls? I went to my local Joann store and used my cell phone to send a few fabric pictures her way. She was delighted to find this bandana print. In fact, if you don't look closely, you might actually miss the fact that there are even skulls on the pattern. Coupled with the hot pink fabric, I think we accomplished what we set out to do--make a "Girly Skull" Cozy.

The embellishment is very pretty, too. I think it matches the flowers on the fabric perfectly. It is a lacquer button that gives this Cozy a touch of elegance.

Happy Mother's Day...from Brenda...to Brenda :)

My new friend, Brenda, decided to give herself a special Mother's Day gift. :) She chose these 2 coordinating fabrics from fabric.com and they look amazing together, don't you think? I think this Cozy might just be my new favorite. Two narrow brown stripes give the 2 fabrics a little contrast in the middle, and the hand-crocheted flower matches the aqua green tones of the fabric perfectly. Hope you like it, Brenda! Your coordinating Cuttlebug and Gypsy Cozies will be finished soon :)
