It’s on to the skirt! I’m almost there!
The skirt to the slipcover was fitted using the skirt pieces I had cut out from the Butterick Pattern. I had to fudge a little but it all worked out.
The first thing I did…unfortunately no photo…was to use a ruler and measure UP from the FLOOR a hem line all the way around the chair roughly at the height of the deck.
Then I started in the back and pinned on the skirt. This pinning is ONLY to mark out the corner pleats. So at each corner I measured 12 inches out, pinned in the pleat, and then moved around the chair until I was back to where I started.
I removed the skirt, basted the pleats, sewed the piece together to make a circle and sewed on the welting.
Skirt is finished! Aren’t you ready to see the FINALE?!!
Stay tuned…the box cushion is next with the reveal!
