Sew much to do, sew little time

Well, the cats were quite perplexed and curious about the entire sewing project. They had to examine everything, and found that the cushion leaned up against the wall awaiting its new cover made a great tunnel through which to creep and surprise attack one another. I did point out to Sundance that if this were a Disney movie, she would be helping. Buddy the Dog simply wandered off to take a nap in Tom's bedroom and ignored everything.

Tom sorted out what to do and managed to get the denim covers on the cushion with very little assistance from me. Other than helping hold the material while he fed it through the sewing machine, my main contribution was to stop giving him a hard time.

The cushions have until now had a denim mattress cover over them, a sort of oversized pillowcase. This is a real improvement. We hope we also have resolved the tendency of the lower cushion to slide forward, letting the back cushion fall into the crack and making for uncomfortable seating.

Yay, Tom Terrific!
