New life to the old carpet

The easiest way to decorate furniture is carpet litter. In addition, it's a great way to use old and unnecessary carpet, which is a pity to throw.

Carpet is soft and pleasant to the touch material, but at the same time it is resistant to deformations and very dense. To make a cover out of the carpet, it is necessary to cut out a square or round shape from the material, the choice depends on the chair for which the litter is prepared. Only leave ten centimeters at each edge, it is necessary for fastening a cover.

To maintain the shape, sweep the edges with threads. You can use dense or woolen threads. If you have a braid that blends well with the carpet design, you can use it instead of the thread.

Tissue and patchwork litter

Dense fabric can be used to create litter. For example, jeans, a draped coat, a tweed jacket and other old things.

If you have even the slightest idea of ​​patchwork sewing, you can connect different types of fabric among themselves. The main thing is that individual patches are combined with each other, otherwise the product will look ridiculous.

To soften the litter, you need to sew a thin piece of foam, felt or sintepon to the wrong side.

Crochet

There are a lot of schemes on the Internet. You can choose one and knit on it. Knitting uses a thick wool thread. For square and rectangular chairs, a scheme is used, the so-called grandmother's square.

For a round seat or a stool, a half-loop knitting technique with a crochet is suitable. Suitable as a monophonic, and multi-colored thread.

By the way, for making litter you can use different materials and threads, it all depends on your imagination.

We fix the product on the chair

In order that our bedding does not constantly fly off the chair, it must be fixed. How to do it:

• Square shape - to sew a rubber band to each corner of the litter.
• Round form - we sew the fabric, beforehand leave the hole for the elastic band.

Pillow on the chair with your own hands

Pillow on the seat of the chair can be done in two ways: tie or stitch. We'll make a pillow of cloth.

First we need to sew a pillow case. Necessarily from a dense fabric. Then we make a pattern - put the tracing paper on the saddle and bend the edges. Bend lines mark with a pencil or marker.

Next, we put the tracing paper on foam rubber and cut the base for the pillow in the chosen formats. Before making patterns for the fabric, attach the chart to the tracing paper. Add one centimeter for the seams. The result is 2 details.
