Here are the two chair pads I made with the football applique on them. I’m very happy with how the machine applique turned out. The owners of the chair pads are pleased, too.
This is the second set of dining room chair pads I’ve made for the boys. I made some modifications, based on my experiences with the first set. These pads are trapezoid-shaped, instead of square. I think that fits better on the chair. I also changed the location of the ties from right in the corner to about an inch in the corner, which was a definite improvement. I also made the ties longer, which makes tying them much easier! And, I used ribbon instead of store-bought binding for the ties. I’ll have to wait until the first wash to see how it holds up.
This is a lot of blogging for me – maybe I’m warming up for NaBloPoMo – that’s November, isn’t it?
Very cool! Can’t wait to see them in person!
