When it comes to sewing, I’m usually all talk and no action. A few weeks ago Markus reminded me that two years ago I had this great plan to sew new cushions for our kitchen chairs. Uh yeah, I’ll get right on that. The following week Markus again reminded me about the cushions and said if I didn’t want to make them, he would be very happy to do it himself. He then pointed out that his method would involve a swingline stapler and some duct tape. Right, I’m on it!
So without further ado… Cushions!
I really like the pear print- it reminds me of 1970s fabric. Although the print on this fabric doesn’t match the funky square patterning of the kitchen tiles, the green, yellow and brown match somewhat. I find this to be especially nifty, mainly because I didn’t plan it at all. Awesome retro cushions are awesome.
And this month’s synesthesia socks? They are coming along nicely. I hope to be finished in a week or so with pics to follow.
Very cute, and a great sewing job!
They look great! Did you recover old cushions or have to do the foam too? Did it take long? So glad to see you are still sewing.
And Hi to your mom!!

I bought new foam cushions since the old ones are really flat and not worth saving. It took much less time to make than I thought it would. Out of everything, the ties were the hardest part of the whole thing.
Great fabric. It’s very cheery!
