I've made two quilted machine covers out of a couple packs of 5x5 squares I got at the fabric shop on Granville Island a while back. (The other one is just a standard-issue plastic Janome cover.) I did need a few extra squares, which I cut out of plain muslin.
They're a bit oversized, part of the idea being that maybe they'd fit other machines if these ever need replacing. The layers (basic poly batting and cotton muslin being the others) are tied together with bits of embroidery floss, besides which the squares have been sewn to the batting along the seams.
I'm satisfied with them, but also happy to be done—I don't ever expect to become much of a quilter, since I enjoy garment sewing a lot more.
