Looking ahead

It may be cold and snowy outside, but here in the workroom, it is all about summer. Piles of patio cushions to cover, cottage chairs needing new clothes, and pillows to make.

These chairs are ready for their makeover! There are a pair of these blue chairs, plus the ottoman; they will be getting slipcovered in the circle fabric.

For this job, we are using all outdoor fabrics. These small cottage arm chairs will be slipcovered in the fish fabric, the small wicker chair cushions in the banyan leaf, and some pillows in the stripe. The brown stripe is for yet another set of cushions.

The current project is for a boat, we are recovering all the cushions from the V-berth and salon areas to the topside seats.

This is the fabric for the V-berth and the salon cushions, very soft and comfy.

The topside cushions are a bright white vinyl, a nice new clean look. They are also more exposed to the weather, so they will be completely rebuilt with new foam.

These are the fabrics for the pillows and wicker chair cushions in the top photo. It will be fun to get into these next after all the white for the boat.
