Oh and a matching case for my reading glasses!

That is an amazing looking cover. Makes me imagine the machine underneath is all perky and happy and raring to sew!
Looks like cottons are ok. I had been wondering if they generated too much lint just sitting on top of the machine. I really need an improvement over the oversized plastic bag that currently passes for my machine cover.
Now I want to see see the other covers you mention. |

Date: 11/20/12 1:22 AM thanks all! Cotton is fine, much better than plastic. These are quilted on soft and stable, which is like car headliner foam, and lined. You can see my other covers at the bottom of This page. ------ Bernina Artista 630 ✂ Bernina Aurora 430 ✂ Bernina 1300MDC ✂ Babylock BLCS ✂ APQS Millennium ✂ Singer 201-2 ✂ Singer 301 ✂ Singer 401A ✂ Singer 15-91 ✂ Singer Featherweight 222K ✂ Singer Featherweight 221

I love that sewing machine cover. Did you use a pattern? I think if I made that cover for my sewing machines, they'd all be happy and then I might sew more.
I should be shot for sewing so seldom. |
