    Default Latest sewing machine cover

    I added the Bernina 740 a couple of weeks ago to my sewing stable... it's the machine I used to make all the tote bags I posted.

    This morning I finished making a cover for it, which matches the rest of the covers I made. That's number 7... I still have one more to go for my cover hem machine. I've been working on this project for about a year on and off and have really enjoyed it.

    The decorative trim panel was done with a twin needle and a couple of the decorative stitches on my machine, and a double row of piping.

    And yes, when I get the very last cover made, I will sweep through the room with my video camera so I can get them all together.

    Wow! Another with a different look; I probably would have run out of ideas after the third one. Good job!

    That is beautiful. My sewing machine never had it so good.

    Beautiful just like all the others. Hope you don't mind me asking but how much of the main fabric did you purchase? I would have run out the fabric long ago. Can't wait to see the video. Love the wall hanging. BrendaK

    I was just going to ask this question too. You would have to be thinking ahead to make sure you got enough I would imagine. It certainly is beautiful fabric and you have used it well. Love the bling on them. Maybe some day my sewing studio will be co-ordinated too ...... but I wouldn't hold my breath.

    Thanks ladies! I don't know for sure, not as much as I should have probably, but enough to do 8 machines and accessories. I want to say around 10 yards of the floral (it's home decor, so 54 inches wide) and I had an entire bolt of the red (Moda Grunge).

    That is the best dressed machine I have seen in a while. Love your colour combo.
