Cut Out + Keep

Netbook Case

Nice and comfy for your gadget

https://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/netbook-case-4 • Posted by Crea

Hi there! My mother bought me a netbook last week (and I will pay her back monthly :P) I swear I am really careful with gadgets, so I don't exactly understand why when I get a new one the first thing I hear is 'now you need a case for it' u.u I saw some really cute ones, some cheap ones and some expensive ones. I bet they are well nice made and really cute, but I didn't have the time or patience to choose. So now, on a nothing-to-do weekend I had to get something to do other than homework and I thought I could try to make a case. It came out way better than I expected. Of course it has some flaws and it is not perfect, but I made it myself and I'm actually proud of it c: I didn't take any pictures on the process, but I think that there my be around other similar projects, I just got my materials and I just went trying. It took long time because at first I was not getting it right and had to undo a couple of times and made a couple of breaks. I had these materials around so I didn't buy anything. The best part of the outer fabric is that I can sew patches on it or put pins and if I take them off the fabric doesn't get marks on c: -the outer fabric is the back of a t-shirt that had a really ugly stain and I cut the front of it -the inner fabric is a kind of polar fleece that I had from past projects -the zipper... I had a luggage with a net inside with a zipper to put in there small things, preventing to go around the luggage. I don't remember why I cut it, but it was useless for me anyway
