Sewing Machine cover and matching mat ...
 
1 Attachment(s)
Hi everyone,
I finished this set this week for another donation item for the auction for the diabetic kids. The block was sent to me from bloomin' Iris. (along with many others) I am working on the other blocks to be able to make them into a quilt, but, this one was too large. So ... This is what I came up with. I sure hope someone finds it nice enough to buy. LOL!

The front, back and mat were quilted.

I forgot to mention that the green strip on the front of the mat is pockets.

I love the mat with pockets. I was thinking of making a cover for my machine & now I think a mat would be a perfect set. Thanks for sharing the idea.

What a lovely set and you have chosen fabrics that really focus on the quilt block. I am sure it will sell quickly.

I love how you put those together. The mat and cover will be very useful, but they are beautiful too.

RedGarnet222 03-03-2012 12:25 PM

I use the old addage that form follows function... LOL! Thanks so much you two! These are just pulled from my stash and the pattern is off the cuff.

Very very nice. Should do well in your auction.

nstitches4u 03-03-2012 07:29 PM

Very pretty! Somebody will jump at the chance to buy that!

RedGarnet222 03-04-2012 08:34 AM

Thank you everyone!

Hi twoxover ... I am setting up the album now of the finished items. Soon there will be a button to click on to see the album of items at the diabetes official site. Copy down the item number and title and then you can either email the diabetes office or call them direct with an offer, your name and your phone number, and how you will be paying.

After the day of the auction, the highest bidder wins! I will be posting the link to the album on the requests part of the board under diabetic children silent auction thread title too in a couple weeks or so.. Thanks for asking.

Sorry no pattern dap. I just had the measurements of my machine and the bottom to go by. It is not hard once you figure that out. Pretty simple rectangles and straight sewing really. The donated block is what makes it special.
