Product Information

Take the shape you have cut for the outer sleeve and lay over the folded piece of outer fabric and cut the same angles. This will form the closing flap of the laptop case. STEP 4: Stitch the base of the laptop sleeve Cut the fabric to the size of your laptop as described above. You will need one piece for the outer sleeve and one piece of felt for the lining. This laptop sleeve pattern does not use a fusible lining, making it even easier. Below you will find my step by step DIY laptop sleeve tutorial with VIDEO instructions for all the visual learners. Because it is difficult to measure 0.4 of an inch I’m going to round the height up to half an inch so 13 + 0.5” + 2” = 15.5”. Now to calculate the length of the fabric I’ll take the depth of the laptop which is 9” + height 0.4” which adds up to 9.4 inches, but this needs to folded over and include the envelope style flap so I multiply by 2.5 and add the 2” seam allowance bringing the calculation to 9.4” x 2.5 = 23. 5” + 2” = 25. 5”.

Two pieces of main of dimensions of front of laptop + 2″ (my MacBook Air is 11.5″x 7.5″ so my pieces were 13.5″x 9.5″ each) Fold so the right sides face out and pin the base turning in the raw edges of the gap you have left, so it is smooth, then press with an iron on the base only. The diy laptop bag now is the right way out and you just have to ensure all the sides are lying flat, and press the finished sleeve. STEP 12: Stitch the gap

Now unfold the fabrics and machine stitch each Velcro piece in the spot marked to the SINGLE layer of fabric.

Let’s do the math. So, for example I’m making this for my mom’s Apple Mac Air that measures 13 inches (width) x 9 inches (depth) x 0.4 inches (high). Pin the zipper on the right side of the front piece with zipper facing down. Sew using your zipper foot. Take it slow as your reach the corners. TIP: If you are using a cotton fabric without any structure, add fusible lining or batting on top of the cotton. STEP 3: Make the top fold

So, my fabric should be 15.5 inches wide by 25. 5 inches long to accommodate my 13” MacBook Air laptop. Fold the fabrics along the base seam, so that the right sides face out. Fold up the base to meet with the two marks you have made on the lining. With right side to right side of lining and outer, pin together and stitch across the base only leaving an opening in the middle of around 3 inches (10cm). These lovely DIY laptop sleeves come with an easy Velcro fastening and a classy shaped envelope-style flap. The outer cover of the sleeve is made from home décor fabric, with a felt lining to cushion the laptop, and no need for interfacing. The best thing is that you can use the diy laptop bag as a clutch – 2in1 – a win-win! Now bend over the flap and see where the Velcro you stitched on the flap meets up with the front of the bag. Mark the spot where the Velcro from the flap touches the front.Pin it to the outer fabric only.

Fold down the outer fabric and up on the other side to line it up with the lining piece. There will be a double folded section in the laptop sleeve now. The first thing to do is to measure the laptop for which you want to create a diy laptop sleeve. To do this measure the length of the laptop as it sits on the desk facing you. You’ll need the width (A), depth (B) and height (C) as shown on the image below.So ladies, let me know, do you want me to make you life easier and make you a laptop sleeve pattern calculator to do the math for you? Let me know in the comments below Reach in between the double fold at the base of the laptop bag and start pulling the fabric through so the right sides are showing. STEP 10: Press the diy laptop case Remember the base is the only part stitched to the lining, and it still has a gap in it – this is to pull the fabric through when you are nearly finished. You will now have an envelope shape. Take the piece of the lining fabric as seen below and fold in half along the length, folding over the corner to meet the other corner of the flap. Take a ruler and measure 2″ (5cm) on either side of the corner, connect the dots with a diagonal line, and cut along the line.
