Scrap Happy July 2022

It is the 15th of the month and time to join Kate, Gun and the rest of the group for posts about things made from scrap.

My contribution is the last of the chairs for Mrs Snail’s shop. This one is the third made with fabric and is a small proddy rag rug. I worked it on a piece of hessian left over from making a rug to go beside the spare bed and the tufts are from some old duvet covers and sheets my neighbour gave me a few years ago. They had been on her children’s beds so were rather pilled and marked but used like this none of that matters.

Do go and see what the others have done – there will be plenty of inspiration for using our own scrap pile.

    I really like that. It’s my favourite of all the chair covers – I bet it’s really comfy and welcoming.

      Thank you. It is a bit like sitting on a cushion.

    It might be from old duvet covers but you have got a design into it, what a clever use of these fabrics. I’d choose this chair too.

    This looks a really comfortable chair cover to sit on.

      I had a limited choice of fabric to use for it so am pleased it came out looking cheerful. It is rather like having a cushion on it!

    add me to the favorites list – just want to touch it and run my hand over the tufts. The colours are bright and beautiful.

      It is very tactile. I am so pleased I ended on a high! I wonder which one the customers will be drawn to?

      Thank you. There is a LOT of fabric in it – which was a brilliant way of reducing my stash!

      Thank you. I will be interested to see which one Mrs Snail’s knit nighters like best. I still have to take this last one to her.

      I have used a lot on these covers which has been good – less for me to store!
