New fabric and a new 'old' loveseat!

The kids competed at the state project bowl for wildlife last weekend in St. Cloud....and of course, we had to find a few craft and fabric stores after the competition.  We said we weren't going to buy any new fabric until we used up some of our stash but somehow managed to come home with just a few new goodies!
We are hoping to make some new envelope pillow covers with the fabrics on the left...new curtains for Ashley's room with the top fabric on the right pile, and new cushions for the bay window as well.  Didn't get a photo of the fabric for that but if all goes well, we will have photos of the updated cushions this weekend!

We also had our 'old' loveseat recovered recently...we were amazed that they picked it up on Thursday last week and delivered it back to us on Monday afternoon.  The kids are all complaining that it is too boring being a solid color but we will remedy that with some bright new pillow covers!  It is acutally a much darker chocolate brown than the photo shows but due to the cruddy weather, it was hard to get a decent photo.


Glad that the kids have a five day weekend....means that the sewing machines will be out on the kitchen counter, and we will hopefully get some new projects finished to share with everyone next week!
