FLASHY COZY

I absolutely love my KitchenAid Stand Mixer - BRIGHT RED! Sorry the picture is a little dark, but trust me - it's awesome.

However, it gets dusty and the small kitchen appliance cozies aren't really for me, so it's time for . . . CRAFTING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
 
I found what appears to be the back of a blouse or jacket in one of my favorite thrift shops. Maybe someone was about to make a costume. Anyhow, it was so vibrant and colorful that I had to have it. Look at all that detail. It's been sitting in my sewing bag for a couple of weeks, and it occurred to me how I could put it to good use with an old pair of overalls.

This is how my flashy cozy was born. I topstitched the blouse back to the overalls and viola!!

A very flashy mixer cozy. It will keep the dust off my mixer, and it'a definitely
an eye-catcher. I think it needs a little hat.
