Today I am sharing a tutorial with Art Gallery Fabrics for this “Stitchin’ Sewing Machine Cover.”  

I wanted my sewing machine cover design to be sewing related but wanted to avoid things that I have seen done before at the same time.  That quickly eliminated spools and pieced sewing machines. I decided to use Pat Bravo’s Carnaby Street to piece 3 traditional stitches:  the cross stitch, straight stitch and zigzag.  You might not automatically associate the design with stitching but that’s ok because it has a cool graphic look to it at the same time.  I used a big chunk of Ladylike Black Tea, my absolute favorite print in the line, for the rest of the exterior so that I would get to see it lots.

My machine looks so pretty dressed up like this!
