My first slip cover for our old leather ottoman turned out, lets just say, not as I planned. I didn't have enough fabric for the pleated skirt because I was using the leftovers from my storage shelves dust covers, and it looked, well, bad.
So, with the help of my handy dandy seam ripper I took it apart and made this little cover for an old stool that is from my mom's house. The fabric is a clean painter's drop cloth and I even made my own piping! I had to pin the flat side piece to the round top three times until I got it right but in the end I'm pleased with my first attempt (well, second) and encouraged enough to try my hand at another project.
