    My leather Kindle cover is getting a bit dirty going on year 2 so hunting around I found this:

    http://www.chicaandjo.com/2009/09/03...le-cover-case/

    I didn't have the chipboard and tried some foamcore. Tougher getting in because of the thickness though. And I would take her recommendation for cotton fabric next time too. What I used was too thick to be able to turn a small tube for covering the elastic so I just made a wider tube and used wider elastic.

    Pretty easy and I can tell I will have a lot of these before long

    :D

    Thank you for asking that question, I thought I was the only one out of the know. Never heard of a Kindle. MNM
