Modest Crew

I made another sewing machine cover. Now why would I want to do that since these vintage ladies and gents are past the age of being modest. I'm not trying to camouflage them since I don't need to hide them from my husband. Well, I'm testing out different ideas for the sewing machine project that I will be demonstrating at the Treadleon Gathering. I love the look of this side! Yes, you read correctly. Even though I would have never purchased this fabric for use (scraps from my mom's stash), I'm very surprised at how elegant this side of the sewing machine cover looks with the vintage cabinet.

    Very nice. I cover mine to keep dust form getting onto them. Sometimes there are open parts on top that gather dirt. Pretty and practical, always a perfect combination.

    Thanks! I'm surprised at how much dust can build up on these machines in just a weeks time.

    very cute! is there a pattern, or are you in the process of developing one? BTW, the sewing machine button is adorable.

    I need a few of these. Which TOGA are you going to? River Rat?

    These are my test runs for the tutorial that I'm working on. I will be attending the Gold Country TOGA, and I have volunteered to give a presentation on assembling a sewing cover.

    Yarndiva, I believe you stated that you will be attending that TOGA. I'm so looking forward to meeting with you!

    I hope to have the entire tutorial up in the next day or two.
