DIY ARB FRIDGE/FREEZER INSULATED COVER

[Rutdigger]

How big of a machine are you sewing it on? I wonder if my Singer Heavy Duty could handle something like this.

I'm using my old singer 66 red eye. Works like a champ.

Sew up your "darts" corners

Then start sewing together the pieces.

Then attach it to the fridge. I used Velcro to attach it.

The cover for the lid will extend down and overlap the bottom cover to provide extra protection.

What kind of thread do you use for something like that? You're not sewing through the insulation correct? Just the two pieces of material?

I'm using V92 thread with an 18 gauge needle. Around the edges no i'm not seeing thru the insulation unless it's a seam edge that isn't getting attached like the top edge. There I folded the seam over and sewed it thru the insulation.

Agree! Kudos!

Pattern for the lid.

Remember to cut two patterns out and sandwich your insulation between the two.

Done.

Enjoy. You can use this to pattern and see anything as long as your machine can sew it.
