Woodwind instrument holders, again

Remember, when I made a musical instrument-holder, for woodwind instruments for my friend? 

Now, Marci, my friend asked me again, to make some holders for flutes.

As they were made as test pieces, I thought it is high time for stash-busting again, and before I would've gone out and buy something, I dug around in the bag(s) full of leftovers to see if there is something I can use. 

Loo and behold, there was some cotton velveteen (duffel??) I had left over from my bordeaux turn of the century set , and another, blue piece from a -yet- unfinished project. 

The lining for the bordeaux was a really old piece of plain cotton, for the blue I used the leftovers from the early victorian dress I made for a museum a couple of years ago.

The soft layer I used in between was the leftover from my blue cape. 





They took me a good, long day, to first figure out what and how to make them, then actually making them, but I think, that was a good day.
