Sweet Seat

Finally, I finished my first seat cushion for my dining chairs. This one is the “proto-type, as I had to work out some of the design issues with my original design (kind of came together as I was playing with the fabric. I am in love with this fabric line.  I had a hard time deciding on which color-way to choose, as this design came in pink and a burgundy red.  I have of the red for some aprons and table linens…but the black goes with my dining area and would hide stains the best.

When Oliver saw the cake designs, he said “Chocolate!”

I have to confess, the polka dot bows are my favorite part!

Now I have to make 3 more….

Sewing Lesson!

Max wanted to make something and I really need new placemats for the table, so I thought that would be a good beginner project.  We had so much fun...now I need to make one for everyone else in the family!

He has been wanting to use the machine so he could "drive" the foot pedal!
