Unfortunately, it does seem to require some basic sewing knowledge—that’s a problem for me, since my greatest sewing accomplishment is basically strapping a button to my coat with about half a spool of the wrong coloured thread (and it still falls off every couple weeks). But if you’re a real human being with basic skills (which I clearly am not), it should be a pretty simple project, and a nice way to customise and protect your laptop at the same time. [Ars Technica]
