The sight of a sewing machine boggles me and I am fortunate to have had my mother-in-law visiting us, who DOES sew.
So last month, I bought these....

| Love, love a god bargain but I love more if it's something truly beautiful too |
They were on clearance at KIRKLAND's and I had a coupon, so I paid like $6 for 1 shower curtain. I got total of 4 and used 2, with a lot of extras for this project.
So with my pleading and prompting, she made these...

| Isn't it pretty? |

| Comfier Theater seats |
 |
| More pillows for our basement yehey! Total of 4 extra pillow covers on top of the 4 above! |
I love IKAT, you know that, I love them on pillows so much that I wrote a whole post about them before! I still have 2 extra shower curtains left, I'm still thinking of what to do with them? A headboard? curtains? What do you think? Any suggestions?
Oh well, that's a project for another day, but I hope, though it entails using fabric, I don't have to use the sewing machine for it since my mother-in-law left already! :-)

DeleteCool! I was saying to my sister-in-law the other day that I wanted to learn how to use the sewing machine. Lol. The pillows look fantastic in your theater room. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Mommy G! I'm just so lucky someone knows how to sew for me or else this shower curtain will end up just that - a shower curtain! :-)
DeleteGREAT ingenuity! and thank goodness for mother-in-laws. love that theater room :)
ReplyDeleteAmen Bethany! Theater room needs a lot of work still as you can see, and those kitchen cabinets have to be updated -fast! So many projects.. so little time! :-)
