Yesterday I finally bought an Ironing Board. I got it home and I was
all super excited about it, (lame I know, but we’ve been without one
for ages). So ironing board YAY, but the cover, Oooogly. Luckily The
Purl Bee has a fabby little how-to on making a new, PRETTY ironing board
cover. The tutorial comes complete with blindingly hip graphics.
You’ll need:
- Pattern paper (or a few sheets of newspaper taped together)
- 2 meters of the lovely new cotton fabric of your choice
- Mid or High Loft cotton Batting
- 3 meters of cotton twine or elastic
- A sewing machine, chalk or fabric marker, pinking shears, pins, a bodkin or safety pin.
And to head over to The (always awesome) Purl Bee for the tutorial.
Or your could buy a cover like these fellows from here.
