Update: Bernina 440 QE machine cover

Thank you all for your great suggestions on what to do with that AB green lotus fabric. You have given me much inspiration for the next time that I venture to take it out of my stash! I believe it may be destined for either a throw/lumbar pillow, or for a quilt of some kind.
Many of you asked about dimensions of the Bernina sewing machine cover that I made so that you could make your own. Here you go! These are approximate:
6 1/4″ D x 17 1/2″ W x 13″ H.
It could be a little bit shorter – there’s a teeny bit of extra bulk at the bottom that I might eliminate if I were to make another one…
Here’s how I pack everything up underneath: I stash the foot pedal, with the cord coiled, inside of the space between the needle and body, I put the accessory cabinet onto the back, and I lean the plastic tray against the front. All of this fits nicely underneath for a perfect Bernina package of joy!
Above is a picture of the configuration – a delicious Bernina sandwich! Have fun making your own cover. If you do, I’d love to see what you come up with! Feel free to post a link in the comments.

Thanks for supplying the measurements for the cover. I just bought a 440 QE and it needs a new dress!
