The lovely lady for whom I'm making the
t-shirt quilt, also requested a couple of replacement covers for her
Kitchenaid Mixer.
She already had the
standard white Kitchenaid Cover (the one on the left), but wanted something in green tones.
I made myself a template, and whipped up a quick toile out of some scrap fabric.... and then had a little conundrum, because I really needed to test it out.
I remembered that when Nic from
Yardage Design had blogged about her kitchen, she had a Kitchenaid Mixer on the bench...... so I popped the toile in the mail, and
Nic tested it out for me - thankyou
Nic, you're a gem!.
As you can see - with scrappy one sided fabric and no wadding, the toile was rather floppy, and it was just a little too long also.
After the testing phase, I got to work on the real thing.
I must say that I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.
