Anyhow, this stool got the priority first because it really need some touching up (notice the fabric sticker at the middle part?) Yup, it had a small hole courtesy of my eldest daughter and then it just grows... at first, i only used half a patch of the fabric adhesive but now i need to use 2 patch of fabric adhesive. On top of that, Big Ray and Little Jay loves to dig out the fabric adhesive - toddlers!
So i guess the best thing to do is to sew up a cover for the poor stool.
I've been wondering what type of cover shall i make? one with applique or a plain one? and i settle for this little patchwork. Well, this is my first time trying the patchwork stuffs so i just did a few blocks. I really admired those peoples who sew quilts and paper piecing stuffs. So much details and hard work goes to each piece of their works. I don't think i have that type of patience (heheheh)...
And for the reverse side, i have choose a purple paisley design fabric from my stash of fabrics (which my mum had thrown out - hehe i collect small pieces of fabrics which my mum doesn't want anymore ^.^ )
I personally prefer the purple side. Guess i need to to practice on my patchwork more!
My sewing skills are just so so, but i believe someday I'll get better ~ with lots of practices of course.
And a millions thanks to all crafts bloggers out there in the world wide web that put up so many tutorials and tips to help out people like me - Thank You ! =)
