Stitcher's Suitcase Pattern

Stitcher’s Suitcase is a standout addition for retailers serving sewists who value both protection and portability for their precious machines.

This pattern includes full instructions for creating a structured, padded carrying case designed specifically for the Singer Featherweight 221/222, while also accommodating other small machines such as the Singer 301, Janome Jem, and similar models.

With its wide zippered opening, Stitcher’s Suitcase allows customers to easily pack, access, and transport their machines and supplies. Multiple interior and exterior pockets provide practical organization for cords, foot pedals, bobbins, tools, and even vintage manuals—features that strongly appeal to dedicated and traveling sewists.

The bag’s construction incorporates Soft and Stable for excellent structure and cushioned protection, along with an acrylic stabilizer in the base for added support and durability. Adjustable handles with a padded wrap offer comfortable carrying options by hand or over the shoulder.

Ideal for classes, retreats, and travel, this pattern meets the growing demand for functional, purpose-built sewing accessories. 

Stitcher’s Suitcase is both practical and distinctive—an appealing project for customers who want to protect and transport their machines in style.

Customers will also love our companion pattern, Feathered Friends, which includes coordinating zippered bags, a vinyl pad insert, and a clever bed sleeve/thread catcher. Together, they surround a Featherweight 221 or 222 (or other small machine) with structured protection and smart storage—ideal for travel, classes, and retreats. 

Finished Size: 11”H x 17”W x 9½”D (Sized to fit Singer Featherweight 221/222 machines)
