My First Slipcover: A Burlap and Muslin Settee



Burlap and muslin slipcover




This little settee was cute
in 1980!


  Some heavy muslin was laying around screaming to get
used. The heavy muslin makes up the seating area
and since I had purchased a huge bolt of 60" burlap I thought
I had better start making use of it. Then I dove into the numerous
slip cover books I had purchased and this is what I ended up with:


Side tabs are attached with velcro. Around the top is just a loop.

Velcro all the way around the bottom for the skirt



Bow ties on side are burlap, of course!

I'm so happy with the way it turned out that I started my junk store wing chair 
slipcover.  It's so much easier than I thought it would be.

Now it will be about an hour before my kitties are on it getting it all furry!
Oh...I made the "Paris" pillow just a few days ago.  Here is my tutorial on how I did that:

Oh...and the rocking chair re-do was my FIRST POST!
