pluggin' away.

I haven't mentioned this quilt for a while...
but I'm still pluggin' away at it.
A few stitches here...
A few stitches there....
One of these days there won't be
any more stitches needed!!!
Can't. wait.

That's my S-L-O-W project.

Here's a quick one.
It doesn't even require a needle and thread!!

Some fabric.....
I like that part....

and a couple of tools:
screw driver. upholstery nails. hammer.

There were only FOUR screws holding those padded seats down.
Simple.

I covered these chairs for some friends
who thought it would be a hard job...
SSHhhh.

  5. Beth, I like seeing your basket quilt again. Your quilting is fabulous! I brought mine on the trip to do some hand quilting but I have the wrong needles ... ugh. Can't believe those chairs were simple to redo. They look amazing! Enjoy the holiday weekend.

  7. I think it must be the week for chairs! There are several here in Sew&Tell and I've got a half done project on my patio. And it is SO much easier than it looks :o)

  9. I love how your quilt is coming out. The stitches give it a such a modern feel. It's great when just some simple fabric can change the look of some chairs. They look great!

  10. Great chair project!
    And that is a seriously beautiful quilt! I really love the design and the big quilting stitch. I just started hand quilting a quilt by myself for the first time - yeah, it's going to be my slow project all right.
