Sofa Skirt

Do-It-Yourself Decorating
Sofa Cover & Cushion
Here’s a look at the bottom of the sofa cushion cover—I cleverly used scrap fabric sewn to the cover material to make a complete slip-on pillow case. Then all I had to do was sew the ends shut. It’s proved quite durable.

Next to introduce is the sofa skirt, which accents that bright blue in the cover. For you sewing fans out there, the blue fabric is gathered and stitched to the white sheet material, which is stapled to the sofa frame. It was important to have it securely anchored since the mattress slides around easily. I thought the skirt really dressed up the whole sofa.

Wow, that must have been a lot of gathers to sew in.
