I just spent the better part of today making a sewing machine cover from 5x5 charm squares, and after putting it all together - I discover it is too short. Even when I put the binding on it's still going to be way too short. I know there must be something I can do, but I am such a newbie to sewing, I just don't know what that would be. The pattern called for 24 charms....4 across and 6 down.....and I'm thinking it could have been at least 7 down because it's at least 2 inches short all around. If anyone out there is old enough to remember when we had covers on all our appliances in the kitchen, this is made very much like the toaster cover. I sure would appreciate any suggestions you girls might have.
