SOFA SLIPCOVER - Progress!

i can sew
(have been for years)
but
i have to admit
the only
'slip-cover'
i've ever made 
was done in 2 pieces of fabric.
you know the kind.
(toss & tuck)
it was a nice linen
that i cut 
&
sewed right down the center 
&
thru over the sofa.
i did stencil a pretty leaf & flower design 
along the edge here and there.
then it got cut-up years later.
it's fabric waiting to be up-cycled.

any-way...

here
is 
the beginning 
of the
slip-cover
i have always wanted.

i
can't afford to purchase a slipcover for 
this sofa.
it's H-U-G-E!
so huge that one piece sits on
another wall 
as a 
one-arm chair!

the beginning...

i cut-up one i had from pottery barn
with the buckles in the back
and 
used some of the fabric 
for the area that won't be seen
under the cushions.
(the area mika is lounging on)
so 
i saved a little $$ there.

not perfect
but
it's coming along
:)

long way to go yet
but
I'll post the end result when finished.
