I had no sewing waiting so i looked around and i decided that my machines needed new covers....On EmbroideryLibrary just recently Kenny had a tutorial for a machine cover so i made 2 one for my Quattro and one for my smaller embroidery machines then wait there is more the macine matt needed to match so i made one to match then the overlockers 1 & 2 were jealous so they got a new cover too.....then i was practicing with quilt as you go and was so pleased with it I made it into a cover for my keyboard belonging to the tower and then yes there is more i made a cover for the printer the last two pics are a bit blury sorry....and that is the end of this story....lol...soozie

11137541781Wow, you really went to town! (old saying-lol)
You've done a great job on all of them. Every time I see someone make a cover, I think, maybe I should cover mine. I keep my over locker/serger threaded. When you remove the cover, I would think the thread would come un threaded or at least mess up, does it?
I also read down lower that you white was prequilted. You called it calico. Where I'm from in the states, our calico is a small print cotton. Just another example of the differences depending on your location.
I do like your white though, it looks so neat, as does your sewing.-Toogie

Hi Toogie...i also keep my overlocker threaded oe with white and the other black. they both have a telesopic pole so i jus t put it down before the cover goes on sometmes one thread gets twisted but not often...he photo does not show the color very well it is a cream color like unbleached cotton the prequilted fabric is also lined with a batting....soozie

Toogie I think you might call it Muslin but Muslin here is very thin. Gets complicated when ordering online I can tell you.
