As a self-employed professional quilter, Heidi Parkes spends quite a bit of time traveling with her computer, and you better believe she doesn’t have just any old laptop case. In this class, she shares her design for how to create a practical and stylish laptop slipcase using a pre-existing quilt or your own quilted fabric. Discover how to measure your device for a perfect fit, sew it together, and incorporate final touches for both protection and aesthetic appeal. The slipcase features double lining, with quilted material both inside and out for added cushioning. The design is very adaptable, allowing you to create a cozy case for whatever needs protecting. It’s worth noting that this project can be completed entirely by hand, without the need for a sewing machine.
