In my desperate run of pre-Christmas sewing, I needed an easy project that a guy would like. I found this free
tutorial by Elizabeth on her blog
Oh, Fransson! If you're new-ish to sewing, check out her patterns, both free and for sale. Lots and LOTS of photographs of each step, and instructions that simply could not be clearer. She has a new book out, too, "The Practical Guide to Patchwork" that's high on my wish list. I don't know Elizabeth personally, nor is this a paid endorsement, I just think her work is terrific.
So I think Zachary liked his laptop sleeve, but I'll bet Elisabeth stole it from him.
I went on to make another sleeve sized for an ipad - the pattern is customized according to measurements.
I have a couple of panels of this Italian alphabet fabric - wish I'd gotten more.
