Free quilted sewing machine cover pattern

We’re seeing lots of yellow and grey fabric pairings at the moment, and this quilted sewing machine cover put’s all those on-trend colours to good use – the grey linen is the perfect backdrop for those sweet lemon prints and pastel shades. Ribbon ties make this quilted sewing machine cover easy to put on and take off, and will keep all that pesky dust out of your precious machinery!

You will need

• Background fabric ½yd
• Backing fabric 18in x 30in
• Binding and patchwork block centres (we used dark grey)
• one fat quarter
• Assorted fabric scraps (¼yd total)
• Batting 18in x 30in
• Co-ordinating ribbon 3½yd

Finished size

Machine cover: 16½in x 28½in

Notes

Seam allowances are ¼in, unless otherwise stated.

HST = half-square triangle.

WOF = width of fabric.

We recommend a slightly heavier fabric than quilting cotton for the machine cover (we used linen) to give structure.
