Felt Zipper Pouch: sewing tutorial

Last week I showed you how I made a Felt and Fleece Laptop Sleeve. The sleeve was perfect for storing and transporting my laptop around, but it didn't have space to add my charger. I decided to use the extra felt to make a zipper bag to hold all in.

Felt & Fleece Laptop Sleeve Sewing Tutorial

I was a very lucky girl at Christmas this year and scored myself a 13" Macbook Air. It was much needed since I'm getting more serious about my blogging now. Before that I was using a 6-year old Netbook I had really just purchased for taking to class in college. Let's just say photo editing took A LOT of patience on that thing. So obviously I am very, very happy with my new laptop.

Immediately after getting it I looked into cases. I wanted to protect my new baby! The ones I liked the most were made out of felt. The Macbook Air is super light and sleek, so I liked the idea of a thin sleeve to protect it without adding bulkiness. However, I couldn't bring myself to buy it. I figure I could make it myself. I definitely procrastinated a bit, but I finally made it!

10 for Tuesday: D.I.Y. Laptop Cases

One of my most popular 10 for Tuesday posts is for DIY Phone & Tablet Cases. I decided that naturally I need to add some DIY Laptop Cases. Most laptops are going to cost more than our tablets and phones, so let's make sure to protect them too. And stayed tuned for later this week for a new sewing tutorial for laptop sleeve I made for my own laptop!

As always, these are all free tutorials. Some require and bit of sewing or crochet, others just a bit of craftiness. Enjoy!

10 for Tuesday: D.I.Y. Phone & Tablet Cases

It seems like most people today have a whole collection of electronic devices: phones, laptops, tablets, e-readers...and so on. These electronics often travel everywhere with us and therefore we want to keep them protected from any bumps or drops. I gathered 10 free tutorials on how to make cases and sleeves to protect these devices. I even found sewing tutorials for phone wallets, a trend I see popping up everywhere. They are for every skill level, whether you sew or crochet (there's even a no sew option!). Let's get crafting!
