Stitching Together a Neoprene Laptop Sleeve

Since I had some neoprene on hand, I thought I'd try using some of it to make a new sleeve for my laptop. And since I also had some embroidery thread on hand, I thought I'd try stitching the neoprene with it.

Sewing through two layers of neoprene, by hand, was a little tough. But it wasn't too bad. A nice sharp needle came in very handy. Embroidering a chain stitch on the surface of the neoprene was much easier.

I'm fairly happy with the results, but will probably make another one with thicker neoprene for more padding and protection.
