    Default Pattern for Featherweight Case cover?

    Years ago, I saw a featherweight case with a really cool fabric cover that sort of draped over the case. I want to take my featherweight to class while protecting the outside of the case. I know I could design a fabric cover, but I have so many demands on my time, I just can't get to it.

    Does anyone know of a pattern for a case cover? Thanks for your help.

    Seems like I remember someone who made a tote that you could turn over and use as a cover. I can't find it now. Did it have a foot controller bag to match?

    A few places to look are

    I just remembered that I have a nice collection of sewing machine fabrics that will be great for 1 of these patterns.

    I made the one by sewveryeasy and love it. I had also purchased a pattern from the Featherweight Shop, but I prefer the sewveryeasy - and that one was free!!

    I love the tote bag ideas. My OSMG(as in gal) told me when I got my FW to never use the handle on top of the case. As most of these machines are very old, the handles can come off suddenly. Not a good scenario with a nice FW inside.
