Pimping the trailer some more

I have had on my to do list for over a year now to reupholster the table cushions in my trailer.  I have never upholstered anything before so that's probably why it took so long to finish the project.  

   The fabric was in the closet for so long it collected a lot of dust.  The project was daunting but I began by taking off the old cushions and unpicking one of the backs of the cushions and one of the bottoms of they cushions.  Unpick the zippers off too so I could reuse them. 

Next I laid the old cushion on the new fabric and used it as a pattern.  I cut about a 1/2" extra around it to allow a little give since the other fabric was so tight on the pads.  

I sewed them all together with the striped fabric for the back cushion and I did a dark blue for the bottom cushion.  I also added vinyl to the undersides of the cushions so that I could flip them over when the kids sit and eat so that it's easily cleaned.  

It took me a couple weeks and lots of unpicking to get it right but I think they turned out fabulous. I'm pretty proud of myself! 

Pretty much adorable right?!
