Free Tutorial - Laptop Sleeve Page 5


Finish by making a closure with a Velcro patch, button, or whatever.. I don't recommend magnetic catches, not all computers like them..

Here's what I made with the leftovers - a sleeve for my DH's Nook (called 'Ook)

And heres how I deal with the vulnerable screen - I added a layer inside the front part only, with one hemmed edge; which will have a sheet of very thin mdf or plastic inserted..If you find this slides out, add a couple of stitches to hold it in place

And of course, you can do these with all manner of nice fabrics, different small blocks, leftovers, and as a wholecloth. You can free-motion quilt it, or add decorations..

This pattern is free for your own non-commercial use, for gifts or if you wish to make a few for sale. If you sell made items, you must credit me as the designer. If you want to make lots, to use these instructions as part of a kit, or to alter them in any way, talk to me first.
