Even though I’ve only done one thing on my list for the Small Projects Sew Along, it feels good to cross something off.
- Sewing machine cover for partner in Modern She Made (MSM) swap (almost done)
Pouch and/or sewing accessories for MSM partner- Pouch for a friend for Mother’s Day (okay, so better late than never!)
- Cityscape wall hanging
- Preschool nap time mat covers
The sewing machine cover is almost ready for binding.
I just need to clean up these threads. Definitely not my favorite pastime, but it has got to get done.
Here’s the pouch I finished up for my partner in the MSM swap.
I used Amy Butler’s Stash and Dash bags pattern. I made a patchwork version by sewing together strips for the bottom panel, using the same fabrics I used for the sewing machine cover.
While I was at it, I made a pouch using that same pattern to carry all my sewing do-hickies and thing-a-majigs. I used some Dr. Seuss scraps I had left over from a quilt I made for my daughter.
Look who I put inside just for fun!
Now, I’m off to finish cleaning up those threads. Hopefully, I’ll have a finished cover to share with you soon.

love the pouches. Cant wait to see the machine cover. Show us the quilt for you daughter. Please! I'm sure its a cutie.
love the orange and greay fabrics, I can't wait to see the finished machine cover! Cat in the Hat makes a fun lining! 🙂
love that patchwork!!!
I LOVE the little pouches and your fabric choices! So cute. : )
I love your quilting on the sewing machine cover! Oh, and the Dr. Seuss fabric on the pouch! Cute, cute. I have some myself and still not sure what to make with it 🙂
YUM on those pouches!!!! I read your profile and smiled when I read "quilted love"! that is perfect! Cute blog!
If I lived down the road I'd offer to sew your ends in for you. Oddly it's a job I find enjoyable (probably because quilting feels like wrestling for me still and the ease of working with a needle and thread makes me feel competent again!!!)
Such great pouches, Nicole. I really do love that orange/grey combo!
The orange/grey is really lovely – that is a lucky swap partner!
Great progress – can't wait to see the completed cover. And nice little pouch(es) you made there! Sweet pattern.
Love the quilting! OMG those pouches are so cute! I'm so wishing I'm your partner =D
Cute bags! Happy thread burying 🙂
Loving the look of that cover, and your wee pouches!
