  • I found these adorable strawberry drying mats at Marshall’s the other day and couldn’t help but think that they would rather be a laptop case. 😂😂😂 Here’s how I made it!

    Girl! You’re going to make me go to the poor house with all these beginner friendly sewing projects but how awesome will these be for gifts this year! I wake up daily excited to see what new project you have! TY for how much work you put into your videos and shopping trips for your audience.

  • @MrsBennett67

    Love this project! Here’s a zipper tip-after you first get the zipper pull on, run it all the way up and off, then separate the bottom inch or so, and put it back on, stopping midway through the length. That way, you’ll have better control over your zipper ends when sewing on the tabs. I found this out the hard way quite awhile ago 😂

    I would love to see this tutorial made with a few zipper pockets to hold charging cord & 1 to hold the mouse. This would be perfect for traveling. Thank you Chelsea for all your projects.

  • @ksharpe8137

    I feel like you would be the coolest friend! I love your personality ❤ I helped my granddaughter and a couple of her friends make the market tote bag with the dish drying mats from DT. They had so much fun making them and they turned out so cute! Thanks Chelsea!

    Hi Sally here ! My dollar tree hasn’t had the larger mats … no mats at all. I went to Home Goods and got 2 really pretty mats for 7.99 🤷‍♀️

  • @user-vm4fv6oy9u

    The timing! I was just thinking that I need cushioned laptop and iPad cases! The zippers intimidate me a little. I never quite know where to stitch. I spent a bunch of time choosing the right zip color for a pouch I just made then sewed so close to the teeth I could barely close it and NONE of the colored tape even shows. 😂. I felt I needed to get close because the bulk kept making it hard to sew straight. I picked it out 4 times before I was semi-successful. I need zipper 101 classs!!

    🤩Instant Like and Subscribe. This project is both practical AND cute! Way cuter and economical than the gadget sleeves at Best Buy. I'm new to sewing, but your easy-to-follow instructions and guidance give me the confidence to shake of my anxiety and get to work on making a few of these as gifts (and maybe one or two for myself). Keep on inspiring!

    Here I am on Sunday in my sewing room thinking I have to go to the Fabric store aka Dollar Tree!!!

    I always have a pen and note pad with my I pad so I think I’ll close in the bottom sides. I just love your creativity.

  • @SisterImawhosoever

    New subscriber here and have been watching your DT tutorials. I made your strawberry pouch zipper bag with success. I also found two of DT’s chair cushions (black, white and yellow bubble bee patten) with ties. They seem similar to the dish drying mats. I quilted each side and then sewed them together with a box bottom, using the straps for handles.

  • @jkgarri

    The laptop cover is very cute. I think I'd sew it with the red edging visible on the outside.

  • @jodiepotter6029

    Chelsea, thanks for your enthusiasm, encouragement and bubbliness; you are such an inspiration!❤

  • @jlr4905

    You are a wonderful teacher ! I have sewn for years..very basic home projects. Never attempted zippers! This makes me feel like I could!

  • @marymueller8297

    Love the simplicity of the creations you are doing. I've been sewing since I was in high school (late 60's) but I'm always up for learning easier and cheaper ways of doing things that don't compromise their quality. Thanks so much.

  • @tammydye1902

    How about a cross body bag from a cute place mat instead of a dish drying mat? I've been seeing matching place mats with the bees on them like the dish dry mats.

  • @victoriaantrillo-xs2xi

    Hi, Chelsea from Tucson Arizona. I hope you have a blessed and healthy Sunday. Hi, watch you every day. It's awesome cause. I'm learning a lot. My sewing machine broke so I'm waiting to get it repaired. When I do and I try to make one of those purses with the watermelon 1 that you did. I will post it on your page. Thank you for inspiring me to do something. I appreciate you.

  • @annafavor4898

    You are so talented, thanks for sharing all your ideas. Plus you make me feel as a beginner “I can do it”!
