Covering the Ugly Chair - Complete (kinda)


I finally found a good fabric to cover the chair - it matches the ottoman and a couple pillows I've already made. It only took about an hour to start on sewing the panels together.

I haven't sewed up the sides yet - I think I want to leave double "vents" on the side so the cover is easy to pull on and off (gotta wash it - doggie). I was thinking about making some cutesy ties made from scraps from making the ottoman. Result - the chair is covered, but the project isn't quite finished. I haven't figured out what to do with the top of it yet (hard to explain). In the end, the whole product will look smoother than it does now. But hey - the chair is no longer ugly :P
