Apologies for the deafening silence around here - between engagement bliss, sorting out our impending big move, being the ultimate Mary Poppins and running Little Miss Emma as well as my photography business I have been a little preoccupied!!
Preparations for our move are under way, we went and had a massive cleanout at the new house (which is looking like an absolute 'renovators delight' at the moment!) and I am slowly but surely thinking about packing up all of our worldly belongings. This has inspired a bit of a Spring clean at the cottage and I am in the process of overhauling my little sewing room cum spare bedroom this week.
I've made a list and I'm checking it twice of all the things I said I would 'one day' organise, sort, file, fold or make for my creative space. So out come the storage solutions: jars, containers, who knew I had so much lace, ribbon, buttons and elastic?! First job ticked off the list is a new sewing machine cover to keep the nasty dust out of my Singer baby. I purchased this fabric from Retro Mummy a few weeks ago and I do not know why I waited and procrastinated so long, this took me literally 20 minutes to whip up.
I love the print with the vintage sewing machine, dressmakers mannequin, scissors and buttons. Mr M says I should make one for my overlocker as well but am thinking I would like a contrasting fabric? I wonder if this fabric comes in other colours...
Have a lovely sunny day xxx

Gosh, it's gorgeous, Emma. What a clever gal you are. I wish I could sew...just not a natural thing for me, I'm afraid. ;) x
Great idea, I think I will add it to my "to Do" list! Thanks
love this fabric and even thought of making a cover for my new machine - seems like it was pretty easy right?
