Genny is all business, as we drive to Gretchen's house.
Here is the lovely aqua toile that gretchen picked out, and here is the floral silk that matches!
here are all the slipcover pieces, that now need to be assembled!
Gretchen and genny are so happy that darn slipcover is complete.
Time to rest.
A final touch, this pillow is perfect! Not too matchy-matchy, but....just right.
Genny is all smiles as we finally drive home.
I am determined to blog each day, but it has not quite worked that way being that I am the company of one. So, I will continue to do my best, as I truly wish to only inspire others to create new things!
On Memorial Day and Tuesday I worked on a slipcover at my friend Gretchen’s home. She was cool enough to let me bring Genny, my canine companion with me for 2 long days of work. Making a slipcover takes time. Before I got to the point of where I could construct the cover, I had to cut out the pieces, and back them with muslin. To make it really special, I serged the fabric and muslin together for that “professional finished” look. I then proceeded to carefully assemble all of the pieces. Genny and I were very happy when I got it all done. As a surprise to Gretchen I found a printed silk with vintage looking flowers on it that matched her aqua toile to make 2 throw pillows. Check-out the pictures. Next up a cute day dress for Megan!!!
