I have updated the blog post to include a brief description of how I made the pocketed ends (as best as I can remember) and I have updated the measurements i.e.. measure your machine and add 1" to height, width and depth measurements to allow for seams/binding.<br />I hope this helps. It was a long time ago so I cannot guarantee it will work perfectly as I also adapted it as I went along. Having said that, the sewwing machine cover is still in daily use so I was able to measure it to get the size of the pockets.<br />Kindness<br />Amanda<br />The Patchsmithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08135555065266052791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1462389179011675231.post-61634043879225451652017-06-22T09:06:43.190+01:002017-06-22T09:06:43.190+01:00HI I am trying to download the PDF but it just tak...HI I am trying to download the PDF but it just takes me to a blank page.<br />Thank you :)Bits N Bobshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05969875655632379952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1462389179011675231.post-84420748999779782732017-03-16T18:30:38.584+00:002017-03-16T18:30:38.584+00:00Try it Latane, it is a bit like turning something...Try it Latane, it is a bit like turning something right side out. At first it is a little creased around the opening but once you press it then it looks good. I use my sewing machine cover every day and the handle opening has survived perfectly.

However, remember to make the gap bigger than the handle by at least 1.5" to allow for the space taken up by the zipper. Good luck and can't wait to see a picture of it in the Flickr group or on my Facebook page.<br />The Patchsmithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08135555065266052791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1462389179011675231.post-2753732969496224022015-01-18T16:41:03.284+00:002015-01-18T16:41:03.284+00:00I am attempting to make a cover today... decided t...I am attempting to make a cover today... decided to insert a zipper instead of a handle opening... should be fairly easy, yes?Anotherfifihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00267027493882602737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1462389179011675231.post-31367127675207956392015-01-16T08:20:32.671+00:002015-01-16T08:20:32.671+00:00Looks fab as always - I shall be making one soon x...Looks fab as always - I shall be making one soon x<br />ahappystitcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12089536433000686419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1462389179011675231.post-27315662672449427942015-01-09T20:15:27.862+00:002015-01-09T20:15:27.862+00:00Pockets too?
