Zac has this beautiful antique dining room table and chairs that he inherited from his grandmother. Well, all was beautiful except for the seat cushions. So I set out to find a new fabric to update our dining room piece. I found this beautiful woven fabric that was light blue and infused with mocha brown chenille yarns. The fabric's shade of blue was a perfect match to our everyday dishes and the brown chenille complimented the finish on the wooden chairs. Immediately when I began this project I realized that these seats have been updated twice before me. I revealed fabric that probably has been covered for 40 years, or more.

The residual was used for throw pillows for the living room, which is a open floor plan to the dining area. I was only able to complete two of the four pillows since I only had enough piping to trim half of the job. I have some more exciting ideas of what I can do to add to our pillow collection, but that will have to wait for another weekend!
