Tutorial: Simple boxy sewing machine cover

Tutorial: Simple boxy sewing machine coverJanice from Maddie Moes shows how she made a cover for her daughter’s sewing machine.  It’s a simple boxy cover that can be placed over the sewing machine to protect it from dust when not in use.  It has a a pocket on the side to hold scissors or other notions.  The polka dot oilcloth she used is sooo cute!  I love that she included her daughter in the planning and creation of this!  Though she shows it for a small scale child’s machine, the tutorial works just as well for a full size machine.  Get the tutorial at Maddie Moes.

Easy Cosmetics Bag Sewing Pattern

The bag is simple, uses very little fabric (about 2/3rds of a fat quarter), has no fussy inside pockets (although you can add your own if you like), and takes me well less than 30 minutes to print the pattern, cut out and sew. But quick and simple doesn’t mean it’s not awesome!

It’s the sort of bag that is versatile enough to be used for lots of applications, not just cosmetics and toiletries. Keep all your pens and pencils in order, use it for a small first aid kit for the car, keep it in your desk at work for a few headache pills and other personal supplies.

Make some for yourself, for gifts or to sell.
