Patchwork Drop Cloth
One of my favorite decor pages on Instagram shared a vintage patchwork drop cloth. She used it as a tablecloth and a chair cover. It looked adorable!! Therefore I had to recreate one myself.
I started with scraps of drop cloth and a couple other neutral fabrics.
Some bits of ticking stripe fabric helped to give it that vintage feel.
I stenciled a couple scraps too. This definitely helps to give it an antique feel.
I then just started sewing pieces together.
I added a couple “patches” too.
once my pieces were sewn together, I trimmed up my edges and squared it up some so it would be somewhat rectangular.
Some of the edges needed hemming to keep it from fraying. I kept a lot of the raw edges too though.
And that’s really all there was to it. You could certainly put a backing on this too. You could make pillows using this technique as well.
I love how this looks vintage 😊. I’m looking forward to putting it out on my patio table with vintage dishes for a Sunday brunch!!
