Hahaha! I love licorice all-sorts, especially the pink and black ones.

I just happened upon the fabric at a local fabric store - matched the periwinkle blue of the walls of my sewing room.

That is so adorable! You obviously put a lot of time into that. I have been thinking of making a cover for my machines, but suddenly realized that the cover would be off most of the time, due to using the machine. I usually have a couple machines at a time going. I can embroider while I am either working on another part of the same project or else a different project on the machine sitting beside it.

You might need to measure your machine and improvise the pattern to fit yours.

When I had trouble with my cat wanting to sleep in the open area of my sewing machine, I needed a fast fix. I took a pillow case,sewed up the open end,cut out a long side, added elastic to that and slipped it over my machine. No more cat naps !!

I just took a 45" square piece of fabric done a rolled hem around it and have appliqued cute stuff on it. I just drape it over the machine with embroidery unit on or off. Sorry on the road so don't have a pic.

I'm not sure if you found it or not but just in case.
Here is one specifically for an embroidery machine. It is the one I am planning to make for my 4500d.

I have a slew of tutorial links for machine covers on my website so if this one doesn't grab your eye, maybe one of the others will?
