The time has finally come. I have been wanting to re-upholster an old leather ottoman that my husband has had forever! And it looks like it has been around forever!
Here’s one view! And another!
As you can see, it needs a lot of TLC! Right now I am working on getting all of the brass head tacks out!
I’ll keep you posted!

I am ready to send off my fabrics for the Spare Change White and Scraps Quilt Exchange! I had to order some new fabric, because the fabric needs to be unwashed, and I have a habit of washing all fabric as soon as it is in the door!
It was a hard decision, but I chose 4 different fabrics, 3 of which I cut 8 5×5 squares, and 1 of another print. We need 25 squares total. I love this fabric!
Here are the fabrics I just received. I love all of them! I saw that Sew Mama Sew was having a fabric sale, and I had to bop on over there. I exercised a great deal of restraint, believe me! But I’ll be back. Wonderful fabric and selection, and great service. I can’t wait to shop again!
So stop on over at Chickpea Sewing Studio and keep yourself updated on what’s going on with the White and Scraps Quilt Exchange. And stay tuned here, I’ll be posting the results of my project with the fabric that I will be receiving. I’ll be looking for you!
Run, don't walk over to Pigtails and Snails! She is having a quilt giveaway, and your last chance to enter to win this beautiful quilt will be by 7pm MST, friday, October 17th.
The quilt is 70" x 100", and is in golds, brown, and whites. There are sunflowers springing up all over the place! She did them in raw edge applique, which is a technique that I just love. It's just beautiful!
Go get on over there, and see what all of the excitement is about!
