Instead, I merely took apart the pathetic (but well-fitting) cheap vinyl cover that came with the machine and made my own out of some canvas materials (Funktastic materials from Sew-La - that I believe were made in Japan) that I love. It looks good! I would say great, but now that I've put it together I would have thought through how to do it better (and simpler!).
I may still so some finishing touches. I used one of the decorative stitches for the handle opening. I also made the binding as well which was easy - I used a bit of cord and a cord or piping foot.

Oh, I just noticed this on Pattern Review. I love the fabric you choose - so bright and cheery. And I had a duh moment reading this...I don't know why I never thought to use MY cheap old plastic machine cover as a template for a stylish one like yours!
Cute!!! I love those fabrics.
Thanks! I was going to save the fabrics for a messenger bag - but I have a million bags (I travel quite a bit for work) so I thought well this is cute enough to leave out. thanks for the comments!!
