My mom is the most talented woman in the world. Many will think this is some grand exaggeration, but it is true. She is not only the best mother, she can bake, be a successful businesswoman, but she can sew like a professional. She also is a self-declared, “joy giver”. If this wasn’t true I would giggle of the ridiculousness but you can’t laugh at the truth. The latest adventure we have embarked on is upholstering a couch for my apartment. While I hang out on the wait list and continually search for apartments, I am living at home. While at home, Robyn and I are preparing all the details and décor.
Therefore Project Leopard Couch began.
The couch that is involved has now been disassembled into what no longer looks like a couch. We are unsure if it will be able to be put back together, but that unknown element will just be a part of the fun. So far several trips to the fabric store have been made, already facing entertaining encounters with employees who are either intrigued by the project or simply staring at us by the insanity.
The couch has been stripped, patterns have been made, and the leopard print fabric of grey and yellow is ready for the sewing of the cushions and upholstery of the rest.

Here’s to Project Leopard Couch and the next couple of weeks bonding and sewing with Robyn on our great adventure full of crafting and laughter.
