Booster seat
My good friend was over so that I could sew some black fabric on the backs of her little girls' curtains so they can get some sleep. It isn't getting dark here these days until after 9p.m. and the days will only continue to get longer. While I was sewing, she was looking through my sewing books. She ran across this booster seat in one of the best sewing books I have. I had a remnant of oil cloth hanging around so we whipped up the seat.
I had never sewn oil cloth before, but its awesome, no frays, goes through the machine so smoothly. The original pattern calls for hand stitching it shut after putting in the foam, but I decided to try a zipper. I've only semi-successfully sewn a zipper once before. This one I was very pleased with and I like how it's bright orange (it's just something I had in my stash). While I didn't have the foam, I did receive an email later that evening that not only did the foam fit, but it also zipped (hooray!) and held when the little girl used it (another hooray!). I think we're going to make another so when her daughter has little friends over everyone can reach the table.
