This case is closed

Finally... the computer case is finished. The pickup date is August 7. I only made one mistake that jeers at me every time I see it... but there are so many parts of it that I love that I have decided to let it go.

The laptop sleeve slides right into the outer bag. The fit seems just right - wide enough to slide the sleeve in easily, slim enough to hold it in place.


One thing I love is the little vintage button on the front pocket flap. Between the design, color combination, and the single visible opening, it was the perfect touch for this bag.

And now? I am ready to take on a bag... purse... anything that doesn't need tweaking!

Teach me thy way, O Lord, and lead me in a plain path... Psalm 27:11

A case for laptops

I did some e-shopping last night searching for everything available in laptop cases. It was a learning experience. I discovered that the really nice bags have computer sleeves - a padded case within the case. And, depending on the price you pay, they are loaded with all types of pockets, snaps, zippers and straps. I have a standing order for a laptop case, so I took a few notes on what seemed most important.

I spent today trying to turn my notes into a usuable product. This computer sleeve is the first step in the adventure. Add a strap and a closure of some kind, and it's on to the outer bag!


Sure hope the recipient of this case has her heart set on sleeves... and straps... and pockets!

To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven... a time to rend, and a time to sew... Ecclesiastes 3:1, 7
