Minikins: Grab and Go Sleeve

For my second minikin, I chose the Grab and Go Sleeve. I figured I'd finally make a pretty case for my trusty laptop, it really deserves it!

While the I-Spy Pouch was pretty easy and quick, the Grab and Go Sleeve took me several hours to do because it was essentially a bag. The construction was interesting and at times confusing, but I followed Sara's video very closely and I was quite amazed when everything worked out at the end. Some of those instructions feel like they shouldn't work, but they do!

I really like this fabric too, as it's such a bright and happy print. I completely forgot I even had this fabric until I saw it buried in the back of my stash, and when I saw it, I knew it was the perfect fit. Turns out I had just the right amount, too!

I think I've grown addicted to making bags. Who knows, I might make a handbag soon!

  3. Love that yellow fabric! Is the pattern for one size of laptop? Or do you adjust it to fit? Nice work!
