Smartphone Charger Case in-the-Hoop III

When your phone is charging, it can be quite the balancing act to find a convenient place for it to perch that's also close enough to the electrical outlet. This charger case solves that problem: the case hangs right from the charger, and the phone is slipped inside it. It also works great when you're travelling.

It's a fantastic gift for family or friends. This case can be embroidered in any colors to your taste. It's big enough to accomodate a smart phone measuring up to 6.3" x 3.07" (161 mm x 78 mm)
These are instructions on how to embroider the files from the Smartphone Charger Case Set III.

2 finished charger cases embroidered one in blue colors, the other in gray hues.

You will need

embroidery thread (either polyester or rayon),
medium-to heavy -weight cut-away stabilizer,
