Does Your Machine Have a Cover? If Not, Why Not Make One!?

Hey gang – happy Winter! I am proud to say that I’m a part of an amazing group of designers who spread the joy of stitching! All of them are listed in the above header. We have been posting on Facebook for weeks about all sorts of fun things! There is one more designer after me on the sewing room topic, so make sure you go to Wool & Cotton Sewcial to see all the stuff happening there!

I really love the sewing room theme. It sure has been fun to update my sewing machine covers, especially since I have a few more machines now than when I made the dark one back in 2004 – that feels like such a long time ago! 

Is it time to update your sewing room? I have just the thing! It’s a fun and quick project that will brighten up any space without a ton of work. This is basically how it goes…You quilt your fabrics, lining, batting and top. Then you cut them apart. Adjust the pattern according to the size of your machine. Do you have smaller machine or a monster? Appliqué on the front if you desire! Round off the corners. Make bias binding and then pin together the pieces. Apply the binding to both sides and trim the bottom edge. Then bind the bottom edge – it really is quite easy! We will have a video soon on making a sewing machine cover on our Stitch with Lisa Bongean YouTube Channel, so be sure to watch for that! Interested in a kit? There are now kits available for each color version! Follow the link below to order now!

Oh…and if you like the quilt shown in the background behind the machine covers, you can get a kit and pattern for that too! Sherrie made a new sample out of cozy flannel. Check out the awesome photos Kali took of it last week, right after we got a few inches of fresh snow. So beautiful!

I really think this quilt captures the colors of the winter season in Wisconsin just perfectly. I love it! if you would like to purchase the pattern and/or kit for this quilt, simply hit the link below!

I hope you enjoy the new machine cover addition to your sewing room. It really adds a personal touch to have nice a cover for your BFF – especially one you made yourself! Thanks for visiting our blog, store and our social media sites. We sure appreciate those likes! Take care…stay warm…stay inside, and STITCH!   ~Lisa

    Thank you for the sewing machine cover pattern! My sewing machine doesn’t need one but! My serger does! Noted this in my journal.

    Thank you Lisa! I love these! The hardest part will be to decide which one to make. I love them all! (Maybe one for each season and just trade them out??) Thanks again!

    Merci pour les explications de la couverture pour machine à coudre. Elles me serviront peut-être plus tard car pour l’instant j’en ai une. A moins que je n’adapte cette couverture à ma surjeteuse.

    Lisa, thank you for the machine cover and I really like the quilt pattern too. I think I’d like to make it in flannel for a cozy winter quilt.
