hard drive. soft pouch.

i bought a new external hard drive, and the casing it came with was just a flimsy velveteen pouch with a drawstring... i need something sturdier than that, so i took an hour to construct something of my own with stuff i had... i took 4 pieces of felt (same size) and two pieces of padding fiber fill (a bit larger than the felt) and basically just made stitching with my machine... like a sandwich: felt-fiberfill-felt sew, then i sewed a patch on one and sewed the two together added some buttons and elastic and bam... sturdy case. from scratch.
