Very clever idea. I'm amazed at all the talent that abounds here. Welcome from Wisconsin. Hope you enjoy it here. I love it. Anymore I couldn't live without it.

Super great idea...JoAnn's has some nifty bags with sewing motifs on them. They will make wonderful sewing machine covers!!! Thanks so much for sharing!!

What a lovely idea :!: :thumbup:
Last month for my birthday my daughter put my gift in a Joann's "go green" bag. So I made a dust cover for my treadle with the hand crank. (After I got it away from Max, who tried to claim it for his personal nest.) It was a perfect fit. Now I am not tempted to fill it with fabric when shopping. :lol:

What a great idea! And the best because it is so easy to do. Very nicely executed! It is amazing when someone uses a common every day item and presents it in a whole new way. Can't wait to try it - i'm going to be keeping my eyes open for just the right shoppping bags. Thanks for sharing!
