Chair Covers
Project: Chair Covers
These chair road-side finds are awesome..... too awesome for grubby hands to ruin so I made two covers that are easily removed and very washable to protect the chair fabric.

Cushion Covers
Project: A birthday present for Grandma
Using fabric marking crayons, the kids drew a picture of Grandma and Pop (in his ute) on linen. I then used this picture to make a pair of cushion covers for Grandma's birthday.

Car Bunting
Project: To celebrate a long time coming driver's license
After a long time, my sister got her license today and she was most pleased with herself. To help celebrate, we made this car bunting for her. I drew and coloured in the cars. My girl drew the drivers, one of whom was her newly licensed aunty!

Refashion: Deck Chairs
Project: New covers for Two Deck Chairs
I bought these deck chairs from the Op Shop for $3 each. The new covers are not a perfect fit but they are perfect for sitting in the sun, with a cuppa, watching the kids play.

Car Sun Shades
Project: Car Sun Shades
Pattern: My Design
After seeing how expensive car sun shades are, I was on a mission to make some. I bought the suction cups for just under $8 at Clark Rubber and the fabric from Ikea for $4. The binding around the edge is made from fabric my stash and the eyelets were from the Op Shop for $1.
