When we moved to our new home, I decided I would like a chair in the corner of the bedroom. Not just any old chair – it had to look nice and fit in. (And not to fling your clothes on either, I told DH, but he doesn’t always listen!) After our new pale green drapes were made, there was a couple of metres of curtain fabric remaining. That would do nicely, so I sent one of our old dining chairs to the upholsterers to get recovered.
As there was still a piece of curtain fabric left, I decided to make a cushion to sit on the chair. And perhaps make use of a hand made doily I was gifted by a work colleague many years ago How would that look, I wondered? So I cut, and stitched, and this is the result. One matching cushion for the bedroom chair. The colour of the fabric did not photograph well, it is really a pale sage green.

What a pretty cushion, great job.
Looks lovely.
Lovely use of a doily! Like the chair too. :-)
Do you worry about your quilts fading in front of the window?
