A new Bench for the Kitchen


Hello, how nice of you to stop by. The sun is shining abundantly, so I thought it would be best to make this post now, still quite early in the morning, and then try to go outside as much as possible today. There is a lot of work to do in the garden, so I won’t be bored.

Remember the fabrics I showed last week?

The renovation of our kitchen is almost completed and one of the new items is this lovely bench. Of course I had to make pillows for it.

One side has a very bright floral pattern, the other side a more subtle light blue pattern with small roses.

In between a stripy fabric with colours of both sides.

It was the first time ever, for me to make a piping. But I’m very happy with the result. Not  too difficult, but it does need concentration.

And one last picture with the table on its usual place:

  3. Pretty cushions! Piping isn't so hard. the trick to do it easily is to move the needle closer to the seam with each step - far away when you prepare the piping, a bit closer to sew to one side of the cushion, all the way over to sew the two cushion parts together.
