Is/was your Mom or Grandma AWESOME making you a dust cover?

Did your Mom or Grandma ever make you a fancy dust cover for your classic computer?  While I was never lucky enough to get a custom made one, I know some lucky guys that were.  Were you one of the lucky ones?  If so, please show off your Moms or Grandmas handiwork!

Yeah, I convinced my mom to make me a dust cover for my Atari 2600 once, with some spare cloth. She embroidered a nice red Atari logo on it. I had to use two paper clips to hold it in shape because it was just a flat piece of cloth, but I used it well until I quit using my Atari altogether.

Told me to put a bag over it.

My mom would just buy the dust covers and made me use them when I'm done using the computer...

 

Thankfully, they're now useful for protecting my Atari computers stored up in the attic.

I'm using old pillowcases to wrap my computers/consoles.?

 

My mom also likes to make small fabric bags to put small pcbs / various boards.

 

Occasionally I would take pictures.

I am not so protective of my items.  Probably should be, but am not.

 

If I needed a dust cover, I would make my own though.

(In addition to making lovely baked goods, I can also crochet, knit, and sew.)
