Homesteading Making Sofa Cover

Nowadays we must learn and try new things especially things we really wanted to do but find not enough time dealings with our everyday chores not to mention house chores which is back and forth and soon no ending at all!

But wait a minute, stop I must have time to do this. This is my first attempt to cut and sew our sofa cover for it is so expensive to let upholstery do the job. So, let's do this aheemmm, truth is I don't have any school experience or anything about sewing about sofa this is my first ever and I think my cloth is in danger hahaha.

Homesteading is one way of sharing what we can share in our little own way while staying at home. And this is my contribution. I would say "cloth beware" here I come hahaha.

First I already do the measuring of the sofa the upper and lower board, side to side and so are the headboard/backboard whatever you call it :)

Now I am trying to cut out my measurements in the cloth hope this is right.

After cutting all the specific measures and done with all the parts I am ready to gamble ahahaha. And sewing is the next attempt that I have to face.

Preparing the materials and of course with some music in my side to start my day. I have here a big sewing machine! As you can see it's like I'm playing for it's too big to carry shhhhssss let's pretend it's big one. I plan to buy a regular sewing machine but it is still a plan until no further a do, not saying budget tight (blink)!

Got to connect both sides to the top face of the cover. And after this let's try to fit it for a few adjustments.

So far, so good though it's a little bit short in the lower part but it's okey for a beginner like me :)

Well, it's all done and it's a little bit tiresome but I really enjoy sewing I don't know why I really like to push the pedal or doing it on hands. I have this urge that, if I have started something I really like and wanted to finished it as soon as possible so I can see the result immediately.

And now the final outcome is here and I'm proud to say it's my first success though I still need more practice in making this. I find it so hard to sew the side part of the backboard/headboard need to watch YouTube to see how it will be done.

It's not bad for a noob! Don't you think? 😅
