SEAT CUSHION FOR ANTIQUE HIGH CHAIR



The old sewing machine has been giving me fits and appears to be on its last legs. I REALLY had to coax it to get this done. It matches the new valances in the kitchen. As soon as the machine is fixed (or replaced) I'll finish making the little "seatbelt" for Ween to actually be able to use this chair! Then we can throw out the ENORMOUS green high chair that is so ready to be put out to pasture.

The ticking bias tape was made using this tutorial by JonaG.

Side/back view:



The ties look like candy canes!



Reverse side is striped. You can just barely see the red embroidery floss used to "quilt" it (is that what you call it?).



It looks pretty against the red wall in the kitchen!
