Long week-end project

I originally planned to use the light green trim. But I wanted a more dramatic effect, so I opted for the dark green. It took me a while to figure out how to put everything together. I wanted to be able to remove the bows when I wash the covers. I came up with the sewed on loop fastened by a button. I hope the reinforcements at the back will be enough to hold the heavy double bows. I finished the end of the strips by hand. I’m happy with the result. 🙂

Dinette project

I recently replaced our dinette set to one with a round table.  I think it saves more space than our previous rectangular table.  And since our old chairs had a lot of scratches on the wood, not to mention the ripped PVC seats, I thought I’d make chair covers to avoid scratches.  I tell you, you’d think the boys are all grown up now and would be more careful with furniture.  But I guess boys will be boys.  So here’s my latest DIY sewing project.
