Fabric Fun Thursday No. 3

Welcome to Fabric Fun Thursday!  I have two slipcovers to reveal today (with four to go).  
Shoulder straps
Bow-tie closures
Showing some leg back there...  No wait, that's not right.  This fabric is a more Florida, than the provinces of France, but there's another option on the reverse side--reveal to come.  Plus, the blend of colors is just perfect for the CC Home.  There's still a couple of straight pins helping me out here, but it can be our little secret 'K?
I used ivory-colored denim for the welting.

"Before"
 Not bad, but the beige really needs to be replaced, it's seen it's better days.

Features from last week.  I hate doing this job, because I just {heart} all of the creativity out there.  I'm pretty sure I'm not qualified either.   But here goes:
Laurie's wreath from Scene of the Grime.  She made it with a bag of scrap rags from GW. 
Sonya's entry from Beyond the Screen Door.  She's a newbie blogger and has wonderful things over there, worth checking out and giving her some bloggy love.  I love the combination of fabrics she chose.

Link up rules.  Please...

2.  Link to this blog with my FFT button (in my right sidebar) or refer to this event in your post so others can  join in the fun.
3.  Mingle-- Everyone loves comments!

Now it's your turn.  What do you have?  I can't wait to see the link-ups!  Remember fabric bargains, showing off, getting opinions, etc. qualify.  Your link doesn't have to be handmade.
