Yaayy!
For fabric sales
I found 7 meters for about $35
and 13 meters for about $100.
The french script fabric is lovely
but expensive so I only got 1 meter
which pushed my creativity.
:)
I have been wanting to slipcover
this couch and a love seat
for some time now. I had to work out a plan
of how I could make the fabric work together and not
look like I ran out.
With the 13 meters I had just enough to complete this one couch,
very little left over...phew!
It is a thick fabric and I dont know if you can tell but it
has a wonderful grey undertone, yum!
I am so happy with it! It needs a little altering
on the seat cushions, but I couldnt wait
to post pictures.
The "right" side of the love seat fabric was
really yellow once I brought it home and
under our living room lighting. Not wanting
any yellow in the living room,
I flipped it over and used the "wrong"
side. I do that a lot, use the wrong side.
:)
It was a ton of pinning, cutting, basting and serging....
I did a little painting,
trying to industrialize it and
give the love seat some grey to
work with the couch tones.
I used a little of the french fabric
to cover the lampshade, but it was super painful to
cut it..:\
Happy Friday
