UFO #6 completed for 2013 This is a laptop carrying case I just made. I got the computer last fall and was going to make a case out of plain canvas that I had on hand. It wasn't very inspiring to use that fabric, so I kept putting it off. This past week, I bought this polka dot canvas at Walmart. I didn't have a pattern, so I measured the laptop and made the pieces bigger to allow for seam allowances. The lining is a fuzzy, thick ribbed fabric. I also included a picture of the side so the blue zipper shows up. I used a wooden cutting board as a backdrop so you don't see me holding up the case. I hate having my picture taken :)

Starting A New Project

I've got 24 more blocks to make, then there will be enough for this quilt top. The pattern is called "The Ruth Quilt", by Eric...
