my old plastic sewing machine cover was getting dingy (not to mention BORING), so i whipped up a new one over the weekend.
it’s made of some blue (like a dark cadet blue) and avocado green acrylic felt i had stashed in a drawer – hence the wrinkles. how does one get wrinkles out of acrylic felt, anyway? my iron didn’t do much to it. not that it really matters, since the cover is there for my enjoyment only. i’m not out to win any design awards for it.
i took some measurements from the old cover, cut out the fabric and slapped it together in no time.
i had fun with the felt flowers, and i found a little bee button in my collection, so that worked out pretty well.
How cute! Hmmm, you might have inspired me to replace the shabby plastic cover I use…
WoW! Very, very cute cozy!I love everything about it, the colors, the flowers, everything! Nicely done!

Oh my goodness, this is amazing. Such a good idea, as my machine is always getting so dusty!
Shazam! My plastic s.m. cover is in sad shape. Shame too, since it makes such beautiful things. Thanks for a fun idea for using up scrap fabric. Oh, and I have no idea about removing wrinkles from acrylic felt –gravity? A*
what a cute cover. I don’t have a cover at all right now, but I DO have a whole lot of orange felt with sparkles…
I love the variegated thread you used on the bottom zigzag!
super-cute!
i wonder if felt would steam out?
this is so beautiful!
