Rough prototype of my home made Ipad Cover/stand

It was done on the fly, just sticking together pieces of cardboard from old certificate protector envelopes (will use thick stuff next time or double) with gaffar tape i had (£1.34 - need to check pound stores as B&Q want £7-8) as I saw what was needed.  Had seen some made on youtube.  I have seen lovely white leather  with brown interior leather one on amazon for £17 and I would buy this if I wasn't worried about security - although I could place it in my envelope idea below which would keep it clean too.  Maybe I will but for now am mad about not getting the Black Friday apple discount (could have save extra £26) so making cover makes up for this and is also a little more satisfying.

Will make some changes after seeing real ones in stores.  I don't want mine to look like an ipad for security reasons.  This one looks like an old paper notebook when closed.  All the following changes may not be done for some time as the current one works very well.

•  will add covering bit to hold ipad in when the cover is open and used as stand, instead of the elastic bands - the ones i have seen are sewn on with elastic on the sides in a few places so as not to cover buttons. 
• will add fastener to keep cover closed instead of the elastic.
• will add flaps top and bottom so ipad can stand in same two angles in portrait view without having to take ipad out of cover and turn it to stand
• will add flaps/something at top and bottom so  ipad can't be seen at all - will be great if i can make these look like the top and bottom of book pages.
• Make parts imoveable when closed so magnet doesn't turn ipad off and on accidentally
• I will make pretty fabric one based on same design.  
• I am working on on my original idea an old padded envelope for Oz.  Battered and uninteresting.   (see last pic) 
• I will make pretty one using book making processes, using pretty fabrics but based on the same flaps ideas.  Still look like a book of pretty box rather than an ipad.
• I may make a leather (have lots of leather and old leather skirts and bags etc) one if i can again make it look like a book

The full cover open, showing centre section, back section with 3 sections, and front section with 3 sections - i just kept adding section and dividing them as seemed necessary.  Luckily it just develped organically and I didn't have to change much.  I didn't cut neat straight sides or worry about bumps in tape as it was only a test.  I would have been more careful if I had known it was going to turn out to be so useful.

Standing tall with bottom/back section folding in 3.  This will also be good angle for life drawing class on table - last week i took footstool and lap cushion with the lower angle set on ipad cover as i sat on a chair,  as i din't realise class had mini tables.  This worked as well.

Standing flatter with top/front section folded in 3.  I use this the most.  At this angle I am able to touch type - need more practice.  This is also good for resting on knees while watching TV in the lazyboy chair with legs up - my usual usage place.

Cover closed with magnet section folded back so it doesn't accidently turn on ipad - to avoid this the cover would have to be more immovable.  

Magnet section in operation keeping ipad turned off - only use it like this on table not in hand bag where parts would move and turn it off and on all day.  

Magnet from old fridge picture stuck on top/outside of cover with yet more gaffar ape.

Magnet touching ipad - ipad off.

Magnet lifted away from ipad - ipad on.

This was my first go and I had put magnet on it.  Good disguise.  I was going to coat in clear PVA to keep it clean.   I may use same idea on old envelope or book pages or covers.  I may use this envelope purely to hide ipad, may rejoin the side so it is envelope again.
