My Juki, however, is in need of a cover, both to make it pretty and to keep it relatively dust-free. I've sketched out a couple of ideas, and now I'm working on picking out some fabrics, but I'm having a really tough time deciding. Maybe you could help a girl out. Tell me which one of these fabric stacks below is your favorite. I'm all ears (or eyes, as the case may be!)!
Stack #1:
Collections from top to bottom: Luxe in Bloom, Luxe in Bloom, Salt Water, Constellations, Salt Water, Architextures
Stack #2:
Collections from top to bottom: Architextures, Simpatico, Simpatico, Simpatico
Stack #3:
Collections from top to bottom: Madrona Road, Type, Mama Said Sew, Type
Find these collections in stock at:
Architextures - Intrepid Thread, Pink Castle Fabrics, and Stash Modern Fabrics
Constellations - I Don't Do Dishes, Intrepid Thread, Pink Castle Fabrics, and Stash Modern Fabrics
Luxe in Bloom - Intrepid Thread and Stash Modern Fabrics
Madrona Road - Intrepid Thread, I Don't Do Dishes, Pink Castle Fabrics, and Stash Modern Fabrics
Mama Said Sew - Intrepid Thread, Pink Castle Fabrics and Stash Modern Fabrics
Salt Water - I Don't Do Dishes, Pink Castle Fabrics, and Stash Modern Fabrics

And I'm planning to pair whatever I pick with some super gorgeous yarn-dyed Essex linen in either black or flax. You can find yarn-dyed Essex linen at Intrepid Thread, Pink Castle Fabrics, and Stash Modern Fabrics. So, what do you think? Which combination is your favorite??? I just can't decide!!!
I like the typewriter fabric. Its kind of related to a sewing machine don't you think? Of course they are all pretty!
ReplyDeleteStack #3 FTW!
ReplyDeleteI say close your eyes and pick a stach...you cant go wrong with any of them :)
ReplyDeleteI'm drawn to #1 for no apparent reason. They all are lovely.
ReplyDeleteNumber 1 for me!
ReplyDeleteI like #1. The rich colors, movement in the prints, and complementary contrast would inspire me to take the cover off the machine and try something new!
ReplyDeleteI like no.1...maybe it's the corally colors that I love...
ReplyDeleteStack 1 for sure. The other two are nice, but just don't make a statement like #1.
ReplyDelete#1 for sure!!
ReplyDelete#1 all the way
ReplyDeleteI'm torn between 1 and 3... I love them both!
ReplyDeleteI like #3 right now :)
ReplyDeleteLikin' number 3...simple, great contrast :-)
ReplyDeleteLooks like I'm in the majority, love #1!
ReplyDeletefor this project, I like #2 with the flax linen....guess I'm in the minority! Any will be fantastic and inviting!
ReplyDeleteLove #2 - am I the only one?
ReplyDeleteStack 3 but Stack 1 is a close second!
ReplyDeleteLove #1 !! But they are all beautiful - you have a real flair for putting fabrics together.
ReplyDeleteWhat colour is your sewing room? I like #1.
ReplyDeleteLove the top one!! Congrats on the new machine!!
ReplyDeleteHard choice!! I love stacks 2 and 3.
ReplyDeleteI like stack #1 the best. Stack #2 is great too. :)
ReplyDeleteI love #3! I may have to get my hands on some of those fabrics and make my own cover!
ReplyDeleteTough decision!
ReplyDeleteAll of the stacks are great, but I'd go with Stack#2 because it is so bright. Nice energy for your new machine!

I like number one-- I think it'll stay fresh all year long. I have a Husky Sapphire too......but your Juki sounds nice!
ReplyDeleteI love the top one. So rich and vibrant.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE #2! I think I'm in the minority, but I think it's gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI would chose #1, but they are all lovely, so you can't do anything wrong :)
ReplyDeleteI like #1.
ReplyDeleteThey are all nice, but I love #1 best. It just pops!!!
ReplyDeleteThe first one - love it to bits!
ReplyDeleteok really they are all gorgeous!! I'm currently liking number 2.
ReplyDeleteWhen I made mine I used different fabrics on each side and also a lining so essentially it is reversible and I can change it depending on my mood, which I love and stops me getting bored of it!

stack 2 stack 2 stack 2!!
ReplyDeleteOoh. This is hard, but I love stack #3!!!!! Mary
ReplyDeleteI'm currently having a love affair with navy, so I choose #1! Can't wait to see what you do!
ReplyDeleteStack #1 for sure! I just bought fabric yesterday in the same hues of peachy-coral and deep blues - love :)
ReplyDeleteI love stack #1 - digging those navys and corals!
ReplyDeletebig fan of all of them but I like #2 best, followed closely by #3.
ReplyDelete#1, need my machine dimensions? :P
ReplyDeleteI am loving #3 hands down! Beautiful!
ReplyDelete#1 for sure!
ReplyDelete#3!!
ReplyDeleteI have to go with #1...I've had Constellations on the brain!
ReplyDeleteI love all the fabrics, but combination #1 for me :o)
ReplyDeleteDefinitely stack 2!
ReplyDeleteEither one or three . They are both pretty for different reasons.
ReplyDeleteI can see why you are having trouble deciding, I love them all...but I think#2 is my favourite. Good luck deciding!
ReplyDeletestack number one has my heart. er, vote.
ReplyDeleteThe first group of course! It's Florida! Oranges, water. You can't choose anything but...
ReplyDeleteLove love love stack #1. It's got such a unique combo of fabrics that look great together.
ReplyDeletei really do like them all...but if i were picking for myself, i would pick #1. i can't wait to see what you make! :)
ReplyDeleteDefinitely #1! I'm not biased at all in that I'm using many of the same fabrics on a quilt myself... :)
ReplyDeleteOh gosh, just close your eyes twirl around and pick one, they are all beautiful.
ReplyDelete#1 (but all are pretty!)
ReplyDeleteStack #1! They are all lovely though. I like the rich colors of the first best:)
ReplyDeleteI'm drawn to the peacefulness of stack #2. Sure wish all this fabric was in my stash.
ReplyDeleteI like them all too but if I had to pick a favourite I would go for number three.
ReplyDeleteI may be too late but my choice is number three! It has just the right amount of whimsy and function for a sewing room.
ReplyDeleteLOVE #2.....In fact, I am heading to PinkCastle to get some!!!
ReplyDeleteStack #2
ReplyDeleteI'm torn between fabric stacks #1 & #3....But I think I would prefer #1.... conn_and_vans_mom(at)yahoo(dot)com
ReplyDeleteI'm totally a fan of words on fabric, so my vote will go to stack #2, but they are all beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI like all of them but for me it is number one. I really like the bright and dark contrast.
ReplyDeleteI like stack #2 for your sewing machine, and then I think you should make one from stack #3 for MY sewing machine....I'm a work-at-home typist/editor/proofreader extraodinaire! Plus, my sewing room is pink!
ReplyDeleteGo with stack number two - it will hide lint and threads much better than dark colors.
ReplyDeleteI vote for #3.
ReplyDeletecannot decide between stack 1 and 2.
ReplyDeleteI like stack #1. I don't know the color of your sewing room, but I would go with the one that looks best in your room. Nancy: rangerer@sbcglobal.net
ReplyDeleteStack No.1 is very nice -- dark blue and melons - my favorite !}
ReplyDeleteI'd go for number 3 but they are all lovely.
ReplyDeleteI thought I'd decided on number one with those gorgeous colors but then you threw in Essex in black which would be pretty stunning with that Type fabric in #3. I think it's the contrast in values which seem so great in those two bundles. But really all of that fabric is so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI like stack #2. I really like my Viking Sapphire 870Q. I know the strengths and weaknesses of that machine. What is it that has you in love with the Juki?
