I finally made it – a sewing machine mat to sit under my machine and hold some smaller stuff in pockets that hang in front of the table. It started out very simple but then I decided to stitch scales around the different sushi. That added a lot of work and time but I think it did make it look better.

I am going to try something like this, I love it! I will try to sew a non skid mat on the bottom side so my portable doesn’t try to get away from me like it always trys to do. Great idea and well done!

That is a great idea, cuz I am a little worried that this will slide away, especially if the pockets are full. I might just add a non-skid mad. Thanks!

Yeah, I had to buy the fabric when I saw it :)
Then it took about 3 years until I found the project to use it for.

Very good idea! I’m always looking for my tools when I’m sewing, and I don’t know where I have put them. This mat will help to hold things together.
