I took pictures as I went along on this project, but to even think of explaining how I did this is overwhelming. Let's just say I am glad they are done and I don't have 1980's mauve chairs in my living room anymore! And they are totally removable and washable.
I used inexpensive muslin to make my pattern pieces. I also made the slip covers out of Osnaburg, which is a muslin fabric, but kind of looks like a linen. Osnaburg is very inexpensive and did well when I pre-washed and dried it.
Be inspired!

I love them! My mother and I recently slip covered a chair that my aunt gave to me, it's awesome!
Thanks for sharing, and I loved your layering post at Nester's place.
Welcome back. I have so missed your inspiring blog posts. Your blog and homespunliving were the first two blogs I ever visited and each is so creative, comforting, instructional and charming. To this day they are still two of my favorites. The chairs turned out great.
Great job. They look awsome.
I just finished a sofa slipcover a couple weeks ago and I share your releif that it's finally over and now you can enjoy them!
