Sew Machine COver
The templates and instructions for a regular sized cover will fit sewing machines up to 13” tall, 8” deep, and 17” in width.
The free templates and instructions for a large sewing machine cover will fit sewing machines up to 14” tall, 9” deep, and 21” in width.
The regular sized cover will fit most regular sized sewing machines.
The large sized cover fits a Bernina B770QE and Juki TL-2010Q.
Make sure you compare your sewing machine to the measurements specified above before getting started!
To make the regular sized sewing machine cover (for sewing machines up to 13” tall, 8” deep, and 17” wide), you will need:
1 yard of cotton fabric for the exterior
1 yard of cotton fabric for the lining
1/2 yard cotton fabric for the binding
a 36” x 42” piece of flexible foam stabilizer (You can sub for quilt batting or fusible fleece and quilt the pieces with those. It will be less firm in structure but easier to wash)
1 handbag zipper, 18” or longer
a 9 1/2” x 9 1/2” piece of mesh fabric (For the mesh pocket if you want one. this can be subbed for a fabric pocket or omitted)
9 1/2” of fold over elastic, 5/8” wide (IF not using a mesh pocket this is not needed)
To make the large sized sewing machine cover (for sewing machines up to 14” tall, 9” deep, and 21” wide), you will need:
1 1/2 yards of cotton fabric for the exterior
1 1/2 yards of cotton fabric for the lining
1/2 yard cotton fabric for the binding
2 rectangles of flexible foam stabilizer, each 24” x 42” (You can sub for quilt batting or fusible fleece and quilt the pieces with those. It will be less firm in structure but easier to wash)
1 handbag zipper, 22” or longer
a 10” x 10” piece of mesh fabric (For the mesh pocket if you want one. this can be subbed for a fabric pocket or omitted)
10” of fold over elastic, 5/8” wide (IF not using a mesh pocket this is not needed)
This is a advanced beginner to intermediate project. You will make quilt sandwiches, attach a zipper, make and attach binding. I personally would skip the mesh pocket. I would also use batting or fusible fleece over the flex foam for cost effectiveness. This is a project that would be great for practicing free motion quilting.
I put a few short tutorials that have to do with the free motion quilting. I always recommend you fully read the tutorial page linked and watch any videos BEFORE making you even order supplies as choices on alterations may affect supplies needed.
