Totally something I would do – you can make pillows and table toppers, scarves and valances out of pillow cases, skirts, coats…. Awesome little ottoman!
I totally heart that ottoman
love this!
Loving the Legs on that Ottoman…
Now that’s clever and it looks great.
Love the shape of that ottoman.
That is genius! kind of reminds me of my gran- not that she looked like an ottoman of course.
Great job! Very resourceful and clever! I love the colors in that plaid!
Oh I love this! I am already looking for beautiful plaids to redo the living room for next fall, curtains…maybe some large floor cushions, I need to start looking for an otoman like that one!
I heart this project. Can someone tell me where I could find legs like that?
I LOOOOOVE that she matched the plaid! Very cool project. I’m looking at my oversized footstool with new eyes. . .
Oh that is cute! I love plaid.
sorry, but that has got to be the ugliest fabric i have ever seen. Excellent technical job though! good job matching the top to sides!
LOVE this. Great color scheme.

Thanks for the plaid matching comments. It took a couple of tries to get those plaids lined up.
Legs are from a wholesaler-I love the angles. Maybe I should sell in my etsy store.
This is fabulous!! Thanks for the link. :)
Great idea. Might try this with one of my old paisley shirts!
