in color order june 2024 pages pattern shop tutorials sew alongs sewing room organization my book quilts portfolio about contact diy ikea poang chair slipcover wednesday june 12 2024 happy wednesday today i wanted to share the cover i made for a thrifted ikea poäng chair i m including my measurements and a quick tutorial if you want to make one too last week i found this ikea poäng chair at the thrift store it had been marked down to 15 which was just too good a price to pass up i ve always liked the look of these chairs and they re comfortable too so i stuffed it into the trunk and slowly drove it home i think i saw it there weeks earlier but the encouragement of friends pushed me to finally buy it the red color of the cushion is honestly what made me overlook it after bringing it home i first tried dyeing the cover but it did not go very well there was just so much fabric and it wasn t taking the dye evenly i looked to see if ikea sold slipcovers for this chair but they don t so i decided to make one myself i took some quick measurements and decided to use a sheet to cover it i knew that s what would best fit the style of the room and also would be plenty of fabric i took advantage of the narrow hem of the sheet for the back of the cover it avoid needing to hem in i wanted this project to be quick and easy the cover is just a really simple envelope style pillow cover diy ikea poang chair slipcover want to sew your own slipcover for your poäng chair here are the details materials 3 5 yards of fabric or a flat sheet 1 yard of velcro coordinating thread cutting cut 1 56 x25 piece for the front cut 2 31 x25 pieces for the back if you re not using a sheet with a hem for the back pieces like i did add to the 31 measurement for the hem you want instructions use a 1 4 seam allowance place front piece right sides up on your work surface place a backing piece right sides down lining up the raw edges with the sides and bottom of the front piece place remaining backing piece right sides down lining up the raw edges with the sides and top of the front piece the two pieces should overlap in the middle pin around all four sides sew around all for sides securing the backing in place finish seams with a zig zag stitch or serger if desired turn cover right sides out and press stuff cushion into cover place cushion on the chair frame to determine where to add velcro strip attach velcro to the back of the cover according to manufacturer s instructions because i used a thin fabric and i made the cover snug the stitching lines from the cushion underneath show through an added bonus i have yet to add the velcro strip to my cover because i didn t have enough on hand it s perfectly functional without it but i am still looking forward to wrapping this project up and getting it installed properly my scrap pouf is filling up and makes for a great foot stool to go with the chair read more about that project here scrap pouf in progress did you know that ikea has been making the poäng chair for more than 40 years i love how this chair is fitting into my sewing room there have been armchairs in and out of this room over the last year and i was really missing having a comfy chair in here this has been a wonderful addition in the end i m glad my dyeing experiment didn t pan out because i love the sweet floral cover i ended up making for it happy

friday june 7 2024 happy friday i have a recent baby quilt finish to share today a couple years ago i made a big quilt from minny muu fabrics using the prism quilt pattern that s in my book patchwork essentials the half square triangle i had collected fat eighth bundles of minny muu spring 2014 spring 2015 and fall 2015 all by koko seki for lecien read more about that quilt here patchwork essentials minny muu prism quilt i had scraps leftover from making that quilt and i had mostly kept them together a few pieces here and there were used in small projects this spring i decided to pull all those scraps plus a few minny muu prints from my stash and piece them into a baby quilt since baby was born i ve realized that you really can t have too many quilts we use them constantly so i knew if i put this together it would get used as a bonus she loves looking at all the cute prints and i do too this was a super simple make just patchwork the squares are 3 75 unfinished nothing fancy for the quilting just a diagonal grid my favorite on simple patchwork quilts for the binding i chose this adorable strawberry print by sevenberry from my stash the backing is a 1 black and white gingham also from my stash i believe it s carolina gingham by robert kaufman but i m not positive i ve had it for ages ironically i originally bought some black and white gingham to back my large minny muu quilt but didn t have enough and had to change course at the last moment and use a wideback so it was nice to use a gingham for this quilt finished off the quilt with one of my custom tags this was definitely a feel good finish i started collecting minny muu over ten years ago it was satisfying to use up the last bits in this quilt fabric minny muu by koko seki pattern none simple
