One last post to show you what I've made in preparation for my demonstration on Thursday night. 3 cushions covers made from men's shirts.
The circle cushions are both (obviously) made from old button up/collared shirts. The square one is made from an old polo that husby was throwing out. I almost stopped breathing when I started to cut into that Ralph Lauren shirt (top left), but my dad assured me he would never wear it again and I could cut into it.
I did my first button hole on the square cushion cover!! It took me a good 20 mins to figure out how to even attach the appropriate foot on the sewing machine, but I got there in the end. I probably could have made the hole a little smaller, but I am nonetheless pleased with my effort.
I'll have to remember to take photos on Thursday night of all my demo items and display. Husby also mentioned that he thinks the round cushions looks like old mens round bellies, and I have to agree. Funny! See ya!
That's funny. I thought the same thing about the round cushions too!
ReplyDeleteOh so clever!!
ReplyDeleteYou are so talented and I love what you have put together. My kids would love a round belly cushion on my husbands side of the bed. It would be so funny..not for him...but totally for the rest of us!
