DIY laptop bag

This past weekend I made a bag to hold my computer. I thought I would share some of my process. I basically created a huge rectangle out of fused plastic with all the graphics I wanted on one side. Then I attached a panel from an old teeshirt on the back. Then I sewed horizontal lines that create the pockets for the padding. The padding is made up of wadded up plastic bags. Next, turn everything inside out and stitch the sides together. And Wha-la. A super cool eco friend laptop bag. Woot!

See and say


I've been trying to capture little bits of spring time and inspiration imagery around Porland.

My obsession with maps continues...
Portland
Amsterdam
I'm loving Matthew Picton's city sculptures. The macro city portriat can be telling of the history and evolution of the city which I think is really interesting and makes me want to stare at them indefinitely :)
