We finally retired the old sofa!! We decided it was about 22 years old. So it was about time. We went to St. George and found this one at Ashley Furniture, I had been on the Internet searching so I was glad they had it in the showroom. Of course, it didn't look quite this big at the store. Then of course, the chair pads did not match. Monday I redid those.
It only took me ALL DAY!! I ripped open the back cushion so I could reuse the stuffing and the spongey stuff went all over!! What fun that was! Any who, I think it turned out okay? And now it matches the sofa. It's muted reds and olive greens. Alittle different than my usual blues, but it matches my roosters, so that is good. (I should redo Katie's cushions, don't you think Katie??)
I have a new toy !! Target had these on sale, so I thought I'd
I finished my apron for the Swap. What a project this has been!! Did you know that either everyone is using chocolate brown rick rack right now .... or the company isn't making enough of it to go around ! Mom's Fabric here in town was out, Joann's (both stores) was out of it. I had this apron cut out and half sewn, because I thought I could just go to Joann's and get brown rick rack. But no, and all of the pink rick rack was the wrong pink!? And either all the stores had only 1 package of beige or none. So I got on the Internet and ordered 6 packages of sable brown rick rack. It came this morning and I got to work on my apron. It is now done and will get mailed out tomorrow to Stephanie in Iowa. I hope she likes it, she said her favorite colors were brown, pink, blue, and green.
