Silhouette Cameo Dust Cover

I saw the latest product by Silhouette, the dust cover for the Cameo. I thought why not make one. Found a pattern by MzDaisy. Thankyou for sharig the pattern:) I had leftover fabric from the dust cover I stitched for Pazzles and Big Shot. It wasn't too difficult. Took me about one hour. Anurag kept asking questions. I probably read a book or two in between! I really like my own personal dust cover( Much Cheaper!!). 

Sorry for the poor photo! I took it with my phone and no natural light. I made a fabric flower to give it a little pretty factor. For the pazzles, I had done a piping in the alternate fabric all around at the bottom. This time I was feeling lazy. LOL...that would have been easier considering my fingers are covered in fabri-tac from the flower! It ate my nail color! Super Sticky but good stuff!

I love the end result! Now, my lovely Cameo is not going to get dusty! I love how the rosette turned out! 

Well, I hope you will give this a try. It isn't too difficult ! And way more colorful ! I really wanted yellow cover but didn't want to cut the new fabric just for this. I do have a very cute yellow fabric I had bought to stitch a skirt...yes sometime in the future I will finish that project ;)

If you can't make one, let me know ! I will make you one for a little charge. It will support my paper addiction ;)

Thanks for visiting me and leaving comments! Have a good day!

Fabri-Tac for the Rosette

Dust Covers!!

I made a dust cover for my big shot . I found a video on youtube by cherylswindow. It was very simple to just follow her and make the dust cover. I used an infusible lining underneath.



Then,I saw a beautiful dust cover in pazzles craft room which inspired me to make one for my pazzles. The pattern was originally designed by Roxanne. She was so nice and gracious to upload the pattern online for everyone to use! I used her pattern to make mine. I changed it a bit because I was not comfortable sewing the reversible dust cover. So I put a infusible lining underneath and used the measurements from the pattern. It came out beautiful!!Thank you Roxanne for the beautiful pattern.

So now I have two matching dust covers!:)If anyone needs the link to any of the patterns, please leave a note! I am so proud of myself:D

I finally used my sewing machine!

I have had the sewing machine for 5 years! It has been sitting on the shelf and looking all pretty;)

We have decorated Anurag's playroom in Transportation Theme. All I needed was a pair of curtains with cars,trucks and trains. I looked in the stores,looked on amazon and found one I liked! They were 100$!!! I was like now that is a ridiculous price. I decided that I will just have to stitch one! My singer is an auto threader and I had difficulty threading it the first time ..way back in 2006. I never tried it again...just had a HUGE mental block! Anurag's baby sitter showed me how to thread it recently. We measured the window,cut the cloth and I finally stitched the curtain all by myself! I am so happy..more importantly Anurag loves it! I had some cloth remaining, so I stitched Anurag a pillow cover..he totally loves it! I made one more pillow cover with basket balls,soccer balls etc! He loves sleeping on his pillow. It costed $30 for the cloth with the backing! I got 2 panels, 2 tie wraps and one pillow cover out of it and a huge smile from Anurag :-) So totally worth it!




I used to stitch dresses when I was in college on my moms hand operated sewing machine. I am enjoying my machine now:-) I need to figure out how to stitch on paper! That would be awesome!
