Creat-ing The Gr-een Sw-ing

 

 I've admired this swing creation for quite some time. I've wanted to make the swing for at least six years now. I guess lately I've had a lot of ambition with my projects. It's funny because I always thought that making this would be difficult-now I see it's no different from other projects. The colors aren't exact from the book, but when are they ever. I used wooden dowels to hold up the swing rods. For this particular project, it seemed that I would NEVER finish stitching together the triangle pieces, but here it is.

Almost Like A Living Room

                So here I am with my latest installment-completed in just 2 days! It's a lace-covered lamp table and I might just make a lamp to go on it. I think the hardest thing about this creation was cutting out the little squares. I was so afraid that I would mess one up and have to start over. Design credits to Kooler Design Studio. Yes, I did decide to stuff the couch.

La-Z Girl!

I came to the conclusion that after making the laise chair and the grand piano, more furniture wouldn't be SUCH a bad idea. The background color of the couch is originally turquoise, but I thought that was too old-timey. I didn't know how I was going to get all the pieces together at first, but you'd be amazed at how much of a project you can accomplish by just reading the directions: ) The spotted pillow is actually sparkly, you just can't tell from the picture.The couch back should be stuffed with mesh but I don't know, I think it looks okay this way.
