Today was a carefree day to do what I want and totally I mean that –by finishing that blue thang I feel freeee…
I sat this morning with a couple of magazines and was browsing thru the pages when this page jumped at me
Oh yes that’s right I remember seeing this on a blog
it read something along the lines of yeah “I’m in print”-way to go Dawn- of Dawn Hay designs…-I soo need a nice new cover for my ironing board….
Yes I can go buy a cover but ugly fugly they all are and so many of them are blue….
I quickly realized I didn't have the requirements to make the cover like Dawn had, but I could fudge it yep I can…
So I dug deep into the “one day I will use this box” and found a lovely embroidered block I received several years ago and a sewing I went.
ahh so much better than the old tatty one….
hehe see the chook such lovely stitching and so much better on here than stuck in a drawer.
Thanks heaps Dawn for the inspiration –whilst mines not as pretty as yours it sure will get some use….
Cheers Vickie

Hello Vicki, my ironing is on the way now!!! Love that you used up something in your drawer. Happy sewing.

Your ironing board cover looks fabulous! Does it make you want to iron or just sit back and admire your wonderful handiwork???
Hi Vickie, see it is right to have a stash of things you will "need" later! That's why I have all these bags and boxed of things I will "need"later, they are very handy. Creative girl with the ironing board cover. Kind regards, Anita.
That is great and very productive!
That blue quilt is beautiful - really nice mix of fabrics.
Do hope your foot is much better and the meds are not kicking you around to much!
looks terrific Vicki... well done..
