My first attempt at slipcovering a chair!

PLEASE CLICK ON IMAGE SO YOU CAN READ MY NOTES AND SEE MORE DETAILS.

This was my first attempt to slipcover this chair we inherited. I was tired of the green, besides I had on hand this lovely cotton sateen which I preshrunk so this can be quickly taken off and laundered. I used many dressmaker details. Did all of this without a pattern using "muslin" fabric to form a pattern by pinning it and forming seams etc. I did a little research on this before I started and learned that I chose the most difficult chair style since it has the arm rests. And it was - it took me approximately 40 hours. I feel it was well worth it. I saved the muslin pattern so I could do another when this one is either worn out or I'm tired of it. I have another slipper chair and maybe next year I will recover it. It will be much, much easier as it has no arm rests to deal with.
On the seat portion which is separate I tried my hand for the first time at free motion quilting stitching. I love it! I can hardly wait to go that direction and do more stitching with other pieces. Thanks for reading and looking! Uniquely myself!
