Sorry about the long hiatus.....Working full time and blogging is difficult! Like I'm telling you something you don't know. Here is the master bedroom finished....for now. I actually just ordered some new sheets from West Elm and will update the photos when they come in. I think they will be the "summer sheets" since they are citron and white stripes.
So to break the making of the slipcover down a bit..............
I cut apart the old slipcover to use as a pattern to more accurately make the sides. And many hours and much frustration later, voila! (This is not a project for the faint at heart or those of you who think "sewing" involves an iron and stitch witchery....and you know who you are!)

| This angle is so tight that it is difficult to get both the head and foot boards in the same picture! |

| This photo shows the sides but makes the foot board look really ill fitting. My photography skills are going to have to improve! |
What do you think? Jeffrey says the pheasant is going to give him nightmares! I like the pheasant, the pheasant stays.
I really love the graphic punch of the fabric of the slipcover. I think it keeps the bedroom very modern and kind of groovy without being too retro or silly.
