Making A New Slipcover :)

I'm always finding new things to do . . .

this week it was making a slipcover

for my comfy TV watching chair.

I saw this fabric and fell it love . . .

Brown is okay, 

but all of our upholstered furniture is brown.

It's a good natural color . . .

 but doesn't this look cottage cute?

   Before I covered the foot stool part of the chair,

I added backing and batting and then I quilted it.

I wanted it to be stronger because we all know 

it will get more wear and tear :)

I already had this quilt,

so I pulled it out to go over the couch

and match the colors in the chair.

 Butchy's favorite place to sit is on the 

back of the couch . . . looking out the window.

He doesn't shed, but he's still a dog,

so I like to protect the couch.

*Notice: The light post outside the window,
that is a new addition to our little bungalow,
only a couple months old.  
The post was there when we moved in, 
but the wires were old and there was no light.  
I bought that one at Lowe's :)  

Well, that's one of the things that I've been up to.

How about you . . .

What have you been doing this week?

Keep Smiling,

Connie :)
