Chair Back Covers

I would like to thank all of you for leaving such sweet comments about my dining room tweaking.  A few folks inquired about how I made my chair back covers, so I thought I would share with  you how I made them. 

First, I measured the back of the chair to determine the width and length I needed.   

Allowing for a seam allowance, I cut my fabric.   In the picture below you can see where I ironed my fabric before sewing because I wanted to make sure when I turned my ends to make a point, it would be even. 

Instead of sewing you could very easily use iron on tape but I wanted to try out my new sewing machine.  

I sewed three sides and then turned up my ends to make a point.  I used iron on tape at the top to secure the point.  Then attached the trim.   See picture below. 

Using my Cricut, storybook cartridge and Heat n’ Bond  I made an “F”. 

Next, I peeled the Heat n’ Bond paper off the back of the “F”.

Then I placed the “F” on the front of the chair back cover and ironed it on.   

There you have it……a Mon0grammed Chair Back Cover.    

I hope this all made sense to you.  If you have any questions, please email me or leave me a comment.
