Ta Dah! Slipcover complete!

Well, I’m still working on the big book switcheroo, but I couldn’t wait to show you pix of the newly dyed slipcover. I LOVE being able to dye fabrics – often times, you can set out to do something, and get exactly what you wanted…and this my friends is exactly what I wanted! My favorite shade of green, with some texture – not too little, not too much!

I KNOW that I will be sharing this space with Stirling – he loves to sit in front of the window and watch the world go by!

    Just beautiful. Love the color!
    I never think to just dye something and it sure does make a huge difference.

    What a perfect spot too – right in front of the window!

    Is Stirling an Aussie? We have two of them.
