I see everyone with cute Sewing Machine Covers... I want one.. well I want 3... LOL!... I wish I could make one.. OMG! I bet I could make one..
What I am looking at... hmmm someting.. kinda LOL! "crunchy" maybe some plastic canvas or craft foam.. cover it in fabric... I want something that I can cover the whole machine... not the little ties on the side AHA!!! Think of Gramma's Toaster you know big and just cover it... While I am whining.... I want a kitchen aid mixer cover to cover Sebastian... he is sexy as hell and I hate that he gets dusty... You know it really is a pain to be a Quilter and not a Seamstress or someone who sews... My mom can recreate what you are wearing but cannot make a quilt to save her life... and I alas cannot make clothes... But I can make a mean quilt... LOL Thanks for listening... I WANT a Sewing MOMMY!!! Where or where are the cool moms/grammas in Houston... SAVE ME FAIRY GODMOM SEWER!!! |
I have been sewing for 35 years and quilting since december, and I live in Houston!

OK, how about a quilted sewing machine cover...found this link and it even has pictures:)
http://sewing.about.com/od/freeproje...necoverins.htm You can adapt it to fit Sebastian, just momentarily pretend he's a sewing machine and measure as per the pattern. Then all your beauties will be covered...you will be a happy quilter and you can post pics and we will tell you how clever you are! |
Momma Butterfly I just PM'ed you!
|
LOL! Thank you... but I think I am trying to be adopted :)

Not in Houston, but love your avatar!

I would adopt you BUT i live in Colorado.Connie in CO
|
HI!!! Bought the quilted fabric for Boris,Natasha,Sally and Sebastian today,,, I have the embroidery designs in my head for each one..
Still looking to be adopted... I am house trained... LOL! |
|
I'm watching your progress and coming along nicely! Project chosen, executed begun by purchasing fabric and embroidery design selected and now next step! Sewing!
|
Can't wait to see what you come up with.
|
Ok I am discouraged and really upset.... :"(
I measured.... ok that was off.. so I did a actual measure up... overcame that.. i embroidered the design on.. ok the design was flawed and it moved... ok overcame that.... ugh.. I think I put the piping on wrong.. I just balled it up and bawled LOL!.. I am sticking to quilts... :( WAHHHHHH |
now, now, now how was your first quilting experience?, perserverence will make it work. Work on your quilts and then go back and do one step at a time and stop, push it aside for a few more and suddenly wala all done and accomplished! I started sewing in high school and can still hear my teacher telling me to "get the pins out of your mouth"! yep heard her yesterday! You'll get there
|
It is a quilt (of sorts...). Now don't let Boris et al down by quitting! Hang in there and remember tomorrow is another day.
|
So I tried... As I said it did not turn out :"( so I am still pouting...
