Sewing Machine Cover

 

I used natural hessian – burlap fabric for this project.

I followed the cross-stitch pattern, changed the name of machine.

Ironed interfacing onto back of hessian material.

Completed project with off cuts of a bed sheeting set that was too large for my double bed.

I did not follow any instruction's just carried on with my project as I went along.

There are great tutorials on Pinterest on how to make sewing machine covers.
