patchwork obsession: part 11


Quilted laptop case with zipper.

Patchwork pieced from leftovers of my log cabin scrap challenge blocks...so these are the scraps from the scrap quilt. (I mentioned that I am frugal, ya' know.)

The best part: the laptop actually fit inside when I was done, but it wasn't too big, either. I made this the day before we got internet in our apartment, so now I may be toting my computer to the library just to use my new bag. :)

  4. Great idea! I don't think Jason would want me to make one for his laptop, though! He he.. it might be a bit girly for him! Yours, however is awesome! It also might be good for toting home those quilting books from the library...and the ones that the kids pick out, too...
