I got a new laptop a week ago, so I needed a new carrying case. The magnetic button on the top might have been a bad idea. Next project is a neoprene-ish bag for the older laptop.
A couple more pics on flickr.

those canvas bags
Introducing the Douchebag II:
You’ve heard of the “I’m not a plastic bag” bags, right?
I’ve been ripping apart boring canvas bags, giving them a nice inner liner, adding some custom embroidery and sending them out into the world.
the kecky county fair
Yesterday, our friends Becky and Kate had a county fair on the street in front of their house. There were more than 30 entries to the judged crafts which included: pies, baked goods other than pies, canned food, sewing and needlepoint, livestock (bees and chickens!), gardening and “other”. The “other” category included a cow sculpture made of butter.
Here was my entry:
I embroidered “I am not a douchebag” on the back side of the bag. I forgot to take a picture of it before I gave it away to a person who really wanted it.
What a great party! I can’t wait for next year.
