I was looking at where hubby sits and decided the flannel chair cover I made for him a couple of years ago was looking shabby. We have a fabric sofa, so wanted to protect it where his head goes.
I hunted out this fabric from my stash. It's a light weight cotton duck fabric that I got from Hobby Lobby a couple of years ago in Tennessee. By the way for the American's out there, is Hobby Lobby still in business?
I even "cobbled" together some bit's of batting I had, rather than use a full piece.
I could have finished it all in one day, but I sewed it all together one day, then hand stitched the binding the next day. I just love the look of this fabric. It's the same front and back.
Super simple project and fit's perfectly with our decor.
I was over at Magpie's Mumbling's and she had a link to Diary of a Quilter, and she had a tutorial on how to make a Manx quilt. I have never heard of that before, so popped over to have a look. I loved the look of it and may give it a try in the Winter months. I have popped the link below in case you are interested. I have to say Magpie always has the most interesting links to check out.
