I've been wanting to make a cover for my sewing machine for ages now. It seems it'll be a while before I can have myself a little sewing room, and so seeing as the machine still lives on our dining table I thought I may as well make it look pretty using an old vintage sheet...
This proved more difficult than I imagined. I didn't have a pattern exactly but I used the old plastic cover as a bit of a guide...
turns out it's a bit too generous, but I think it'll do the job.
and now, with the littlest superhero's delivered to their nana & pop's, I just might have time to get up to some more creating - Yay!

Looks fabulous! Without a pattern and all. I think it's time you taught me how to use mine!
ReplyDeletePretty! Great project, it looks super snazzy, love the vintage fabric xo
ReplyDeleteSuch retro goodness! Love it. (Reminds me of the covers my Mum used to make for all her gadgets when I was a kid.)
ReplyDeletegreat job Mel!
ReplyDeletemy nan made me a cover for mine, and it's truely the most hideous thing you've ever seen!

ReplyDeletebeautiful! and so essential- i find mine gets dusty quite quickly because i store it on the floor under my desk. love the fabric. xo m.
