Change style with a change of dress. Awning stripes echo the casual straight lines of this chair. A fancy fabric, such as toile, would make a more formal statement.

What You Need:

  • Medium-weight fabric (the amount will vary with the chair height and size)
  • Water-erasable fabric marker
  • Hook and loop tape
  • Fabric glue

Instructions:

1. To determine the size of the main panel, start at the rear of the chair and measure the length from the floor over the top, down to the seat, across the seat to the front edge, and back to the floor.

Add 1-1/2 inches for hems. For the width of the main panel, measure the space between uprights and add 1 inch for seam allowances.

2. For the removable side panel, start at one side and measure from the floor to the seat, across the seat, and back to the floor. Add 1-1/2 inches for hems. For the width, measure the distance between the legs and add 1 inch for seam allowances.

3. Draw these dimensions onto your fabric and cut out the two panels. Turn under the hems and seam allowances, encasing the raw edges. Cut four 17 x 2-1/2-inch strips for ties. Fold each tie in half lengthwise and sew along the raw edges, leaving an opening for turning. Turn and slip-stitch the opening closed.

4. Place the main panel over the chair. Mark the placement for the ties at the seat joint. Tack the ties in place. Slide the side panel under the main panel, centering it on the chair. Glue the soft loop side of hook-and-loop tape to the underside of the main runner where the two panels overlap. Glue the rigid hook side of the tape to the corresponding spots on the side panel.
