    I don't know how I found this site, but in the on-the-cheap home improvement area of the site, I saw something about restoring old furniture with fabric scraps. Well, I had to look. All I can say is WOW!

    WOW hardly describes it. Those were stunning! Thanks for the link!

    Very nice. I would love to have a Victorian sofa redone with an old vintage quilt in pastel colors.

    OK. I want all of you ladies with the gigantic sewing rooms to get to work! :D
    I personally think they're stunning. Not at all what I expected when I clicked on that link!
    Here's the company that does them http://www.designbyleftovers.se/

    Those are gorgeous. I did reupholstery before I became disabled. We never did anything like this. Wish I had. Might have to do one for myself.

    Those are really beautiful, but re-upholstering something is hard work!
