The studio is a buzz of creativity as I am preparing for market. Sondy and Carolyn have been a big help getting all of the details worked out...
One of the elements in Wrenly's Place will be an old bench from the Stitchin' Post that I have painted and recovered....here is the changing of the bench! (PS most of the photos were taken with my iphone so not the best - please forgive me)
How it originally looked...
Lovley old fabric....now, as the fabric was removed this is what was found...
WOW, isn't that the 70's smacking in your face.....mom did such a great job covering this in a patchwork collection of cottons and velveteen's....
Look at this piece of fabric that we found behind the velveteen.....Carolyn thought that maybe as a kid I put it in the bench as she was recovering it...the fabric is from 1976. I would of been 3. Now, I can see Vivi sticking some sort of fabric in something I was working on, so it wouldn't surprise me if I did put the fabric in the bench. Mom doesn't remember...so we will never know.
Painted in turquoise....the old bench is taking on new life with the paint and my new home decorator fabric, Ingrid.
AAHHH, Sophie approved....that means I had to of done something right, those kitties can be pretty picky.
The bench sits in my studio now covered in cat hair but truly loved. I can't wait to see it in the booth.
Well, I'm off to the studio to get more done! Have a great day!!!
