More Girly Sewing

This shows my previous room with my fave knitting, reading, tv watching chair, in red gingham, and now it is time to change that cover and sew a new one. I found some pretty floral fabric at Walmart and it was in two yard packs. I got three, just in case. Now I'm thinking I need a couple more, since this new fabric will make nice curtains too.

These cushions were orignally covered about 12 years ago. So uncovering them was almost archaeological .

The previous insert was uneven and lumpy, so I also added new batting and filled in some gaps with loose stuffing. Then another cover of batting was added to smooth out the whole thing. 

The finished back cushion and then the seat cushion followed, both with zippers so that the covers can be washed.

And here is the finished look. Sleeve caps were just added this morning. 

I will add a pillow or two to match the chair and curtains can't be far behind. But in the meantime I am having blinds installed, because this room is just not dark enough for my taste. Curtains don't cut it. The street lights are really bright. 

I'm planning on pink paint for the walls. As girly as I can make it!
