Netbook Laptop Cover...

For Mother's Day I wanted to do something extra special for my mom. So I decided to finally break out my new sewing machine I got for Christmas to make her a pretty laptop cover for her Acer netbook, which she got for Christmas. I used a tutorial found here: Crafty Gemini Laptop Cover . Here is how it started and how it all turned out:

The patterned-side is the outside and the purple-side is the inside, with batting in between.

























I quilted the layers together and completed it with a pocket for extra storage and some binding to hide the edges.

































I added some velcro for security and some handles for carrying.





























Lastly, I added some pretty accents over where the velcro is located and an iron on tag to mark my work.

























The finished product!
