Sewing Machine Cover


So I made this sewing machine cover!

I love it!

I used the butterick pattern B5368.
one of the ones I bought when it was on sale for like a $1
cause why should you ever buy a pattern at full price?

I did have to adjust the width of it to accomidate my machine.
and it was super easy!

i know i promised a project where i did the bias tape the "better way"
but the pattern wanted me to do it the cheater way!
lol. so I did. i'm just lazy like that. lol.

recognize the fabric?
it's from my fabric heart wreath i did a couple of months ago.
what can I say.....I LOVe the colors of the fabric.
plus I had enough left over

then i used the yellow and white stripe to create a ruffle.
because, everything is better with ruffles!!
plus the yellow just adds that little bit extra that i love

why did i take so many pics??
i dunno.....

i guess i'm just practicing my pic taking...
you know, with the poster board to create more lighting.....
a (wrinked. ugh) peice of fabric on the table....


oh well... another project done in the sewing month of september!
Lots more projects still to come that I haven't taken pics of yet
(mostly because they require me to be in the pic and i'm not ready to be photographed...lol....blame the pregnancy!)

    Not only is this practical but it's gorgeous! I love the colors and patterns that you chose Lisa! I've been hand sewing everything for years (big bummer) and I've been asking for a machine. This will have to be the first thing I make. I'm definitely pinning this!
