Well, I was able to make 4 pillows before we had to change gears and serve up Thanksgiving dinner. We had to move the furniture in the living room all around to accommodate the 2 extra tables we needed. Because we move the furniture around for the Christmas tree, the room is officially discombobulated right now. It… Continue Reading
One thing I did during Thanksgiving break is slipcover my hubby’s new chair.

I’ve been hard at working changing out the colors in my living room. I’m halfway through the biggest project, sewing a slipcover for my hubby’s favorite chair, but I did get my chaise slipcover dyed – I was quite worried as I had to come up with a color combination that would overdye the new… Continue Reading
