I need a laptop bag - TODAY





I just made a laptop bag! I use my laptop mainly at home as my only computer, but in two days I want to take it with me in the train. It is VERY big, and I could not find a laptop bag I wanted in the right size today.
I cut an old camping mat to the right size for the protection, and from a patterned denim I made a very quick bag. It closes just by tucking in the extending fabric into the filled bag. When I have time I might add a clasp later.

another layer

I made another layering-piece from thin wool knit, in burgundy. The pattern is from Knipmode magazine October 2007. It was really quick to make because the neckline is an oversized turtleneck and it has a band instead of a hem, so does not require very accurate work.
