It all started...

It all started when I was waiting for something to be printed off the printer, and I happen to glance at the lonely sewing machine. Feeling sorry for the sewing machine (and myself, for neglect of use). I just happen to run my finger across the top to see how much dust had collected.

Then I saw the pile to the left... humm, scraps! The light bulb came on!

I took those scraps on the left, and made a sewing machine cover! It was so much fun, and with just a little changing of the directions... it came out GREAT!

I used the following directions for the sewing machine cover, which I Google and found online for free. I loved the fact that I had all the fabrics on hand. I just used the remaining strips from the Spools quilt I had finished earlier this year, and I just had to sew it up till I got the right amount of fabric that was requested for the pattern, and went from there.

I love doing projects like this.. and now my sewing machine better feel the love!! There now I have something I've always wanted to make, finished!

What a great idea! I love it. My aunt suggest I do something like that for my machine but in cross stitch. It will be too big. I like your idea better. It is beautiful.
