Feathered Friends
Sewing Machine Accessories Pattern
Give your sewing setup a coordinated, handmade touch. The ByAnnie Feathered Friends pattern combines three zippered bags, a convertible bed sleeve and thread catcher, and a vinyl-topped pad for organized sewing at home, in class, or on retreat.
Printed pattern only. Finished items not included.
From packing up to stitching away
Keep everything close.
Make it your own.
Open wide. Find it quickly.
The three bags unzip along three sides, making cords, pedals, thread, and small tools easy to see and reach.
One accessory, two jobs.
The padded sleeve protects the fold-up machine bed, then becomes a thread catcher that snaps onto the vinyl-topped pad while you sew.
Soft structure for everyday use.
All five projects use ByAnnie's Soft and Stable® for cushioned structure. Choose coordinating prints for a matching set.
A coordinated travel setup.
Designed to work with ByAnnie's Stitcher's Suitcase. That companion travel-bag pattern is sold separately.
