My sewing machine got cold.

September 6th, 2006

I haven’t been using it as much lately, and in my absence of sewing fits I decided it needed a cover to put on.  I actually made three, I was so indecisive that I kept changing my mind. This is the final winning one.

I went with my second favorite fabric of last year, this map design. I had literally just enough so I figured it was meant to be and resisted my urge to cut out yet another choice.

I cut out a matboard top that is held with elastic bands to the top of the cover. Otherwise, the top of my machine is bumpy and gets narrower on one end so when I had the cover on it, it appeared all messed up but it really was sewn straight. Went with a button lasso type thing to hold the sides together.

 

Now, the patch is made with the Crafty Club Iron-On transfers.  I first ironed it on to a piece of light colored cotton, then zigzagged stiched it to a piece of felt making it into a patch.  I couldn’t iron it directly on the map fabric because the map would show through and just using the light colored cotton was too thin that I could still see the map through it. 

The first rejected sewing machine cover choice can be seen here.

    I love handmade sewing room supplies - needlebooks and pincushions and, of course, sewing machine covers. That map fabric is outstanding and so in keeping with your style.

    Simply lovely! My poor sewing machine is sitting on the floor, green with envy!

    This is great, I love the fabric and the patch.

    ps. glad you rejected the first one, otherwise this beauty might not have been born.

    I love it so much! The button lasso is genius. (And the reject is super-cute too, btw.)

    Love the cover…I’ve been meaning to make one myself for a while. Thanks for the further inspiration! I have that same tray as well…it was my grandmother’s.
