Susan's Sidebar Project: Sewing Machine Cover

Image
Sometimes you have to take a break from the larger projects and make something small!  Here's the result of my recent break from the Broken Dishes quilt piecing - a new sewing machine cover for my Bernina. I had some really cute Yuwa Japanese fabrics with buttons, scissors and sewing stuff on them hanging around in my stash from way back when.  Combining them with an Echino green stripe fabric for the trim made for a fun sewing machine cover. I used a very easy and straightforward pattern from Empty Bobbin called Cover Up . The pattern recommends measuring very carefully, and I know for a fact that is great advice! My original cover was a little too short so I added a quilted edge in the green stripe at the last minute to make it fit correctly. Happy sewing!  It's back to quilt piecing for me for the rest of the week! Susan
