Today the third in the set of matching dust covers was completed. Like the others, it has a pocket for the operating manual. As it happens, there is a lot of extra pocket space...I suppose I could have made a smaller pocket, and less deep, so the book would be centered. There was plenty of the gold porthole mesh as it was, and I don't want to redo the pocket.
The fabric for the top is, again, the Australian aboriginal themed print. The fabrics in this line are really pretty, even the ones with a more regimented pattern There was still some of the golden hash-marks print for the pocket binding and handle. And the ends and back are in the same purple solid. It's my theory that the repeating fabrics will help the unify the room.
On a sadder note, my favorite local quilt shop is closing. The owners have decided to retire. One cannot stand in the way when people do what makes sense for them. One can only give good wishes to them for the future. Best to y'all, B. and R!
