This is a sweet slipcover. With cording around all the edges, a T cushion, round arms with pleats and a pleated back pillow, there were lots of details and attention required in the creation of this slipcover!
Here’s a picture of the chair before. Yes, it did have a seat cushion and a back pillow, but I had already covered them before I realized I hadn’t taken a picture and honestly, I didn’t feel like wrestling them off for a picture!!
This is a linen like fabric. It was fantastic to work with as far as weight, but it certainly does fray…a lot! I had to use my serger on every seam on this slip-cover to ensure a long life.
This is the softest, most comfy chair I have ever sat in, no wonder her owner wanted a slipcover made!! Her matching couch and ottoman are also getting new slips. I’m sure I will post pictures as soon as they are done!
Oh, by the way….can we say 8 days!!! :) Just in case you lost count!

I love that fabric. You did a great job. It looks like it's a great fit too. Eight days!!
Great job... once again! Oh how I wish you lived closer!! I just couldn't bring myself to making a slip-cover and ended up buying a new couch and loveseat.
So HAPPY to have found your blog today!
Beauteous...love seeing your work!
Not sure if I've commented before, but have followed your blog for a while. I LOVE it and am so impressed by your slip covers, etc....That looks so intimidating to me!! I've got 2 chairs that need recovering and I just keep staring at them! Maybe with you tutes & fabulous ideas I might just tackle them. BTW - congrats on your hubby getting to come home soon and thank you all for your service to our country!
