Plus, did you spot that amazing butterfly block used in the middle pocket of the sewing mat? It is a free block that we shared with you in an earlier article here.
I just want to say that I was thrilled to see the Elna in the photo- I grew up with my mom sewing on one that looked very much like this one except it was all the darker green color. That machine was very ahead of its’ time, having the embroidery stitch discs and other wonderful features. Mom used for many decades and I learned to sew on it. It is still in our family, living with my sister who makes beautiful quilts.
What is the best place to order garment labels (that are personalized)??
I actually made this and love it. Thanks for the instructions.
I’m so glad you offered the Maker Mat. I lost mine in Hurricane Harvey and hadn’t thought about it until I saw your pattern. Having the pattern makes constructing another one so much easier.
Thank you for the pattern. I have been wanting to make one for some time and couldn’t find the pattern before now.
