Laptop Sleeve

1.  Leather Laptop or Tablet Case DIY ~ With this tutorial you’ll learn how to take a piece of leather material and turn it into a stylish way to transport a device.  I think it’s the perfect gift idea!

2.  Geometric Laptop Sleeve Tutorial ~ Make a fun laptop sleeve using basic quilt-piecing skills.  The geometric pattern is perfect for the manly man, but you can also use more feminine colors to customize for a woman!

Notebook Cover

3.  Zippered Laptop Sleeve {Tutorial} ~ Since this tutorial is measurement based, you could adapt it to fit an iPad or other electronic gadget, too.  I love that it has a zipper and not just a fold-over pouch.  That fabulous fabric doesn’t hurt either.

iPod/Cell Phone

4.  Cellphone/iPod Case ~ Make dad, grandpa, uncle or brother a cellphone or iPod case with an old tie.  All you need is one tie, button and pony tail holder.

5.  Quilted Camera Case/iPod Cover ~ Keep that little pocket camera or iPod protected with this adorable quilted cover.  Fabric scraps are perfect for this project.  You could also use this tutorial for sunglasses, Nintendo DS’s,  and Kindles, so it’s the perfect gift idea!

iPad

6.  Laptop/Kindle/iPad Sleeve Tutorial – This pattern can be made for any size laptop, Kindle, or iPad by adjusting the measurements accordingly.  Lindsay also gives suggestions for making a more “manly” if you are giving it to a guy.

Kindle

7.  Kindle Cover Tutorial ~ Know someone who needs a Kindle cover?  Use this great tutorial to make them a custom cover to keep it safe in their purse or backpack.
