Hello everyone I thought i would share this as i actually meant to do so a few weeks ago and forgot! I have a footstool thingy in my back room where my husband likes to go and sit to do gaming and it is all beaten up from the dogs sitting on it. It is leather and I don't buy that now but we have had it some years, so I bought some faux leather in grey (well I thought I had ordered grey!) when it came it is a metalic colour and I had not checked the box correctly, well oh well I made it up anyway. It does look so much better than berfore but it is not perfect. Here it is....
It was a quick make so I didn't spend too much time on it I just needed to give it a refresh as my husband does use it to put his feet on and there is handy storage inside it.Friday, 13 May 2022
A Little Makeover
This week I have made a jacket for a friend so I must remember to take images of that before she collects it. Also I have more videos on you tube so if you are not already a subscriber please go and take a look.
I have got the above book from the library just like I did with my other Tilly book beofre finding one in the charity shop. I also have put in a request for the latest one as a buyer request so fingers crossed they get that one in too.
My husband has a new shirt that I made and he wore it for a night out, so now that I know that he likes that one there will be more to come, I did need to alter the cuffs though I don't know how big they think peoples wrists are, these were quite big before adjustments.
This t shirt was another tilly make using leftover bits, I am very pleased with this as I love a use it up project.
Well I hope you are having a good week and enjoy your weekend, take care and bye for now.

That footstool looks wonderful with the make over you have given it ... very professional looking. I love all your sewing - you are so clever!
ReplyDeleteThank you Julie, it is a little more silver than I would have liked but much better than it was.
ReplyDeleteI love your thrifty sewing projects like the stool and the T-shirt. I like to do those too and it reminds me of why I started sewing. Jo xx
