DIY:: iron cover - & a simple how to do

Image
When I recheck my fabric box, actually, there are left-over fabric for my cousin's comforter. So when i saw his iron cover is not changing since he bought it from ikea, so I decide to make one for his iron board. at the same time, my iron board at my home also need to get a new iron cover since it bigger than what we can buy. so i measure both of the iron board and start to make it. 1) at my cousin house. Actually this iron board is from ikea, but i do check the cover replacement, it cost about more than rm50 (if not mistaken). 2) so iron board from ikea. fabric from ikea.. perfect :) 3) the other cover at my house. 4) beneath it, i put a thick fabric to replace the span. then i cover it. So here how i do it. (sorry coz i dont take a picture for it) 1) make a pattern by tracing your iron board into the newspaper. 2) add about 4 inch for all side ( plus the seam) 3) cut the fabric based on the pattern u make. 4) sew the side and make casing for the rope.(remember to sew it twic

Comforter Set: The result...

Image
Here are the picture of the comforter which i have done for my cousin, actually, the comforter is finish last april. After that, he send to laundry. And after that, it waiting until now time to use it. -The backsite of the comforter/quilt cover. I use the square pattern of the same colour pallete. white and green. -To be honest, it quite a thrill to sew that quilt cover. It because it huge ( king size if not mistaken) which i have to use the living hall just to cut and open to pin it. But it seem worth it just to see that it fits to the quilt. -The material i use is an Ikea fabric( i think many of you recognize this fabric) the square pattern fabric, i bought it in Nagoya at jln tar. -The set come with 2 bolster cover ( 1 big and 1 small), 4 pillow cover, and also a quilt cover/comforter. So i feel satisfied with it. Maybe, in future, i will do it for my self :)...

DIY: hanging small bag

Image
Actually this was suppose to be my niece's bag for hari raya. but i couldnt manage to finish it. So i replace with other bag. Because this fabric is half-way, so i sew it and use it as my hanging bag. 3 in the group with different size to be honest, my sewing is not neat. 1) the outer. Actually this fabric is already finish by the time i make it. i use the velcro as a closure. 2) the inside, just a simple lining from the black transparent fabric.

DIY: sewing machine cover

Image
At last, my sewing machine already has his new cover. Previously only a plastic cover that come with my sewing machine. So i decided to make a new cover since based on what i read on the internet. :) The fabric i used is an upholstery fabric that i bought long time ago. it quite nice with a big pattern on it. So the step is simple u can find it on the internet. for me is like: 1) measure the sewing machine.  2) cut the fabric based on the measurement.  3) cut the fabric for pocket.  4) sew the fabric. 5) done.. 1) front side ( 2 large pocket for me to store the pattern) 2) left side ( 1 pocket each left and right side for me to store pencil or pen or ruler or scissor)
