Chair Facelift
I have this beautiful Adirondack chair that Dad made for me several years ago. It has undergone a few different redos. First it was painted dark green with navy checked cushions. Then I painted it this blue and had khaki cushions. Well, it needed a little fixing up, so I redid the cushions and this little throw pillow. I just love it! I'm going to make a triangle bunting to hang on the windows in this room out of pretty light blues and whites, so they will match the chair well.
A few years ago I made these valances for the sunroom windows (where the chair is) and I put them up with sticky velcro (lazy me! didn't want to mount curtain rods). Well, the velcro unstuck from the fabric, so I ended up with this messy look:
I am going to peel all that off and replace with the aforementioned bunting.
Also, here is one of the two felt bags I made for Jack's Easter egg hunt. Got the idea from Purl Bee.
Lastly, here are my French General charm squares laid out for a quilt. This is actually only half of them--I'm going to use all for the quilt. Yay!
