UPDATE: I've found this inspiring post, after “quilting” my bag… I'd like to try something similar, sooner or later! This pattern is suitable for a 15″ Macbook. The size can be easily adjusted by shortening or lengthening the initial chain and number of rows. Crochet Laptop Bag Materials Make sure they're the same length and try on your bag: it's supposed to be a crossbody bag which will leave your hands free while you safely carry your laptop around. D Sew rectangles to reinforce the point where straps become free from the body of the bag (remember? The 40 cm – or 16″– chalk mark?)

The size of the pattern is designed for 13-inch laptops. The dimensions of my laptop are 30.5 x 21 x 1.5 cm. If you want to sew the bag in a different size for a larger laptop, you will need to adjust the pattern to fit the size of your laptop. As always: pre-wash your fabrics, let them dry and press them wrinkle-free! Tutorial How to make straps: Sew them in place sewingthe same rows of stitching as you did in the upper free portion of the straps.I started “quilting” together layers, using a contrasting thread (pink) but it wasn't enough for me… so I added other colors to the mix (all in the red spectrum) and went on having fun! Let's topstitch the portion of the straps which is going to stay free, across your body: sewon both edges with a contrasting thread, until you reach the 40 cm (16″) chalk mark. length: 2 times Y + Z + 2 cm (or 3/4″, for ease) + 2 cm(or 3/4″, for hemmingshort raw edges: fold them 1 cm or 3/8″ toward the wrong side, press and topstitch) Cut out the outer material and lining fabric according to the pattern. If you want to work with a reinforcement, iron it onto your lining fabric.
