I totally want to make the dress shirt/laptop sleeve. Alas, I have no sewing machine.

you could try by hand? I know it's more time consuming and more work, but it can be done! i once turned a pair of jeans into a skirt using hand stitching and it's never come apart, 4 years later. good luck!

Hahah, not only do I not have a sewing machine, I don't even have a needle and thread! Hmm... I might have a Dollarama sewing kit somewhere actually. Well, maybe I will give it a shot!
