Good morning friends!
Hope you had a wonderful weekend.
And I hope you’re ready for another week of Don’t Fear the Fabric: Oilcloth + Leather, here on MADE and on See Kate Sew.
We’re sharing tips for sewing with those two fabrics so you’ll jump in and try them out!
And today I had planned to show you…..drumroll…..my recovered barstools! YES.
Remember when I asked for your advice on fabric choices and you left 300 comments-worth of input?
Well I was going to reveal the new chairs!….but then my body went and got sick on me this weekend. So my post won’t quite be ready till tomorrow. So I’ll just have to tease you for one more day.
In the meantime let’s talk about that fabulous giveaway you entered over the weekend, sponsored by Baby Lock sewing machines and Oilcloth By the Yard (my favorite online shop for all things Oilcloth).
These THREE winners will receive a Teflon presser foot, wonder clips, and 1 yard of Oilcloth from Oilclothbytheyard.com (winner’s choice):
#243 – Penny G who said “This is an amazing giveaway with such fun things and a plan”
#186 – Theresa who said “I love oilcloth, these colors are great!”
#274 – Ronda who said: “I have always wanted to sew with oilcloth but have been scared of it! This may cure me. :)This is an awesome giveaway. Thank you!”
Congrats! I’ll be contacting the winners via email.
And if you didn’t win, don’t forget to purchase your grab bag of oilcloth, which they created especially for MADE readers. You’ll get a bag of oilcloth remnants for only $10!—that’s 2 yards of fabric for the price of 1. And it’s the perfect variety and cuts of fabrics for small projects. I just bought mine yesterday! Thanks Oilcloth by the Yard!
I constantly spent my half an hour to read this psychic web site’s articles
every day along with a mug of coffee.
Congrats to the winners!!! I can hardly wait to see your bar stools!!!
This is the first time that I’m learning about oilcloth and I’m really looking forward to trying it. I love your website! I stumbled across your video tutorial on making pillows when doing a youtube.com search. You’re so talented that you make it look easy! And your video was done so well that it actually was! Now I’m your biggest fan! Thanks for sharing your talents with us!
I have worked with laminate fabric before but never oil cloth it would be so fun to try!!
You have some really interesting ideas on this site! I have not sewn oilcloth in the past, but I do think it will be fun to work with.
