Step 3Sewing the Outer Bag
1. First, pin the pieces together. Remember to pin and sew so that the right sides of the fabric are together:
a. the 13.5" x 8.5" pieces (A and B) will form the sides of the bag; pin the 8.5' x 3.5" pieces (C and D) to these along the 8.5" sides of each. This will basically form a tube of fabric
b. pin the 3.5" x 13.5" piece (E) along the bottom of this tube forming an open "box" - each side of E will be pinned to another piece (the 13.5" sides to A and B, and the 3.5" sides to C and D)
c. pin the 5.5" x 13.5" piece (F) along the top of this "box" to form a flap over the opening - only pin along one edge to connect it to B
2. Sew along all the pinned seams - black thread was used here. To make sure that your laptop will fit, either make your seams as narrow as possible, or add a little extra to all of the pieces
3. Turn right sides out
