I was procrastinating doing laundry yesterday and decided that I needed a fast project to do to make me feel better :) Pinterest is a good place to go for that… and I came upon Char’s Silhouette Dust Cover tutorial. When she posted it, I pretty much ignored it because I didn’t have a Silhouette at the time—sorry Char! This time I actually used it!
The only thing I did differently was add a side pocket to one of the side pieces. I am always putting my knife pieces in random places, so I wanted to keep it all together. I just used Char’s pattern piece and cut it in half to make the pocket pattern piece. I used a scrap piece of coordinating fabric to make a cute little bound edge, and keep it closed with a small piece of velcro.
I’m rather liking my more organized situation. No more lost pieces. I hope.
It went really fast, and I am happy with the outcome. It matches my Sewing Machine Placemat.
My laundry still isn’t done though.
You can see my other crafty to-do projects on my Pinterest boards, here.
Oh- I’m keeping the Toss-Up Giveaway open for one more day. Go ahead, there is still time to enter!

I love ignoring laundry to make pretty things! Love the fabric and organisation is so crucial :)
Can I bring my laundry to your house to ignore? Or maybe just come over so I can't see mine :) ps walked around ALL DAY today shopping, and only had one lousy contraction. But sure am sore from walking!
I think one of these lovely machines will be under the tree for me this year! If so, I will be making one of these cute covers for sure. Thanks for sharing it.
