1. Measure your tablet or laptop that your making the sleeve for. Add 1 inch seam allowance.Cut the fabric.

* I bought 1/4 yard fabric squares pre-cut from Walmart for 97 cents. It was the perfect size for the pattern.

2. Next, measure the fabric batting exactly the length and width of your tablet.

3. Iron the fabric, if needed.

4. Last, lay the batting inside of the fabric.

5. Fold the seam/fabric over the batting, Pin the edges in.

Time to sew!
