Laptop Sleeve

I needed a laptop sleeve to keep my macbook in when I want carry it in a bag but not bring my laptop bag around. Everyone has those generic looking black neoprene sleeves, so I wanted something that stood out. I found a little less than a yard of this fabric and at first, I was going to use it for a quilt, but realized I wouldn’t have enough for that, so I used it for this laptop sleeve instead. I doubled up on the padding because one layer didn’t seem like enough. The padding was such a pain to sew through because I had to manually adjust my sewing machine so that it would take something so thick. The sleeve is a little snug, but I think the padding will thin out with time and it’ll fit better.

Oh that looks so cute! That’s a really good idea, I think I’ll go and look for some nice fabric to make my own sleeve.

Wow, that inspires me to make one for my bf’s mac. It’s so thrashed, and he’s already gone through five! He’s on his sixth, and he just carries it around. I should make him a sleeve. Do you have the dimensions, if it’s not too much to ask?
oh, and that star bracelet is connected to the other two, I wanted a cascade bracelet, so I made three and stuck ‘em on one closure. I really like it too.
