Summer projects

Quilted Raw-edge Applique Hot Pad - I drew and cut out the flower free-hand. I still have work to do. LOL!
Quilted Nine-patch Pillow
I added the zipper-it's my first zipper!
I re-covered the dining room chairs-finally! They have needed it for about 10 years! Once I figured out where the staples came out and what size staples I needed it went pretty quickly!

I didn't make it, but I found a great deal. I got this used leather love seat for $70. It has some scratches, but no major damage.

Bo installed a counter in my laundry room. Yay! Thanks honey!

Butterfly Afghan

This was a free pattern from Wal-mart. While I'm happy with the results, I don't know that I'd make another one. The butterflies are made separately and sewn on. It was hard to get them placed correctly!
