How about my computer bag, it is Harry Potter themed! I wanted it to open envelope style, instead of a zipper, and that lead to the idea of an envelope. which naturally led to Potters invitation to Hogwarts! The letter is a little diddy bag for my bamboo pad/pen. And the little owl is to hold my headphones.
The main fabric is from Joanns and is a basic fabric from the muslin section. The lining is a basic green square pattern, for Slytherin pride. There is some foam inside for cushioning because im a bit clumsy. I drew the logo and writing on with fabric markers. For the pattern, i de-constructed a regular envelope and made a giant edition from wrapping paper. I used a giant red button (also from Joanns) for the wax seal, and use velcro to keep it all closed down. The bag is roomy enough to hold my laptop and charger cable, so i love it! I wish the penmanship was better, especially with the green marker since it was felt tip and a bit harder to control. The letter bag has a little elastic loop on the seam inside to hold the tablet pen and it too has velcro at the top to keep it closed. The little owl was made with shrinky dinks, with the ear buds as little eyes and a slot in the wing to hold the plug end.
So hows that for my very first make something monday? i hope you enjoyed, all you non existent readers! Tomorrow is Tasty Tuesday! so i hope you are excited for some random food talk! :)
