All of the organizing left me with a lovely spare room with neatly hanging fabrics and lots of space to cut out. Now that I have a dog I find myself sewing downstairs with him a lot more so even though I use the spare room as my holding room for fabric my machine is more often than not sitting on the dining room table. Inspire by my tidy room I set to work to make a cover for my machine. I wanted something that makes the machine look less abandoned when I leave it downstairs but also can hold little bits and pieces that I need when I'm sewing.
I was recently given this fab fabric which seemed perfect for a sewing machine cover!
So here it is - I didn't quilt it like some of the amazing covers you see on pinterest but for my purpose it really is good enough.
The pockets on the sides are really handy for scissors, thread, tape measure and pins - all those bits that would just lie on the table looking untidy otherwise.
And there you have it - much tidier and tucked away without any obvious wires or bits and pieces hanging around.
I'll never be a minimalist but hopefully this will look just a little more like it belongs!
