This is my second Charlie bag, this time for my notebook PC.
Padded, lined, overlock-stitched hem and extended handles. No seam at bottom. The pattern was printed 70% of the original size.
striped cotton canvas, pink cotton broadcloth, polyester pad for quilt, gold thread for overlock
Thanks, BurdaStyle!

It’s so sleek and perfect! And I love how it doesn’t look like a computer bag.
