When My DH cleaned out the garage he brought this old footstool for me to use for my back pain. At first I thought I'd run to the store & get upholstery material to cover it but then it occurred to me this was a perfect opportunity to use my stash & practice piecework.
Foot stool needs help! [ATTACH=CONFIG]127703[/ATTACH] To small! [ATTACH=CONFIG]127704[/ATTACH] Border fabric bleading [ATTACH=CONFIG]127705[/ATTACH] Looks good but...

Now I don't want to put the tacks in it to attach it! I'm considering using Velcro.
|
That's a good idea (Velcro), but I think gold tacks would be good too!I also like the pattern you used!
|
Great use of scraps!!!
|
You could apply elastice around the edges so the cover could be slipped on and off with out leaving any tack holes.
|
Yes, even those "thingies" these use to hold sheets on that go across the corners underneath Hubby and you did a great job
|
I used the method of sewing around a square then cutting a x to get the HST's, &used glue sticks to get the points to match. I was very disappointed in the red bleeding 'cause it's the fabric that I used on DFIL's memory quilt. I guess that I wont put a white binding on it.

Great idea....I think I'd use the elastic or sheet clips.
|
Very nice. The velcro is a great idea then you could take it off and wash it when necessary.

I also just cringe at the thought of the holes that the tacks would create in my work, although I do think that the gold tacks are pretty. |
