latest make do and mend


My latest make do and mend projects have been to rework the
family photos over the sofa. 
I reframed a few of them and added some mirrors. 
It still needs a few more frames and another mirror to finish it off
so I will keep looking at yard sales.
We also moved the oak rocker and ottoman in the living room and
I sewed a simple slipcover for it. 

wonder where Elizabeth has been?
she enjoyed a week at the North Carolina beach
with her parents and other relatives.
She did give this rocking chair her
seal of approval,  it is good for
wiggling and wallowing on!

  3. Hi Rhonda,
    Your picture arrangement looks great and your rocker fabric is lovely. The little cutie stretched out on it is your sweetest accessory, though!
    Hugs, Cindy

  4. "A simple slipcover." I think we have different definitions of simple! But then, I'm coming at this with very elementary sewing skills. Your living room looks great, and I'm so impressed with what you can do with a sewing machine!

    Love the pic of Elizabeth all stretched out on the chair and ottoman!

    Looks great Rhonda! Re-working things like that is a favorite way of mine to get a new look too.
