here the pics. Please all, be indulgent...
So it's back, open and front, and the elastic band is fixed on the back and closes on the front. I decided against making a seam on the loose end in the inside because it would have been too thick, instead I used a special fabric glue and sew a fine thread afterwards to keep the layers firmly together. I love those striped fabric, I was originally looking for bayadère, but could not find any down here.
The Mini is kept secure with Velcro this time, as it is so tiny that elastic straps looked really weird.
As always, I read with the front cover folded to the back and kept there with the red elastic band, and my hand between front and back cover.
Maybe not super elegant, but very comfy indeed.
