It's a glorious sunny weekend here in Toronto, but I am about to hurl myself into the Big Slipcover Challenge. What I'd really like to be doing is walking a trail, hugging a few trees and hiding behind a few to watch some birds.
But I've thought about this too long and I have a Christmas deadline. Yards of sage-green ultra suede are covering my dining room table. The piping rope isn't strong enough to hang myself with, so all is good.
I'll be posting updates.

I'm considering getting a sailboat ... do you do sails? ;>)
You're faced with the Big Slipcover Challenge; I just bought a new recliner on the internet.
Two huge -- I am talking large -- boxes arrived. I hadn't read the small print: there is "assembly required."
The instructions show how simple this is going to be -- no harder than putting together a new Ford Mustang in your living room.
Looks like I'll be sitting on straight-back chairs for a bit longer. :-)
Fabulous color. Can't wait to see the finished product!!
A very good luck to you with your project; I love the mild, creamy seafoam green colour.

Nice colour.. do you do window(treatment)s? ;)
What a fun project! Love the fabric!
Bill: I don't, but I am available for boat christenings.
Berowne: You have GOT to be kidding! I can do IKEA shelves, but a RECLINER? Argh! I hope you'll keep us posted.
Willow and Protege: Yes, it's a sort of seafoam / sage. One of my favourites. Any shade of green is good for me.
Hilary: my little Singer machine has made a gazzilion curtains, but they're easier, somewhat two-dimensional.
Betsy: It's not been as much fun as I'd hoped, but I'm glad it's practically done. :)
Thanks for the good vibes everyone!
