Fat Quarter Gang - Stitchin' Sewing Machine Cover by During Quiet Time

Hi everyone, it's Amy from During Quiet Time here today to share a tutorial to make this Stitchin' Sewing Machine Cover.

I wanted my sewing machine cover design to be sewing related, given it's job and all, but wanted to avoid things that I have seen done before at the same time.  That quickly eliminated spools and pieced sewing machines.

I decided to use Pat Bravo's Carnaby Stree to piece 3 traditional stitches:  the cross stitch, straight stitch and zigzag.  You might not automatically associate the design with stitching but that's ok because it has a cool graphic look to it at the same time.  I used a big chunk of Ladylike Black Tea, my absolute favorite print in the line, for the rest of the exterior so that I would get to see it lots.

Fabrics used:

• 1/2 yard Pure Elements Sandstone
• FQ Carnaby Street Ladylike Black Tea
• FQ Carnaby Street Go-Go London Lustrous
• FQ Carnaby Street King's Road Turquoise
• FQ Carnaby Street 60s Waves Midnight
• FQ Carnaby Street Soho Dandy Nocturnal
• FQ Carnaby Street Retro Pop Mint
• batting and backing material

I hope you enjoy making a cover for your machine!  Remember, you will want to measure your own machine and make adjustments as necessary for a good fit.
