A couple of years ago we inherited my grandmother's piano. I have loved having this piano in our main room, where I can listen to Finn practice (our other piano is downstairs from our main living space). But I have to say, the peachy fabric on the piano bench left a lot to be desired. I don't want to reupholster it yet, because I don't want to commit to a fabric just yet. So I just decided to sew it some new clothes!
This project was quite easy and I knocked it out in the course of about two hours one afternoon. I used white denim fabric that I'd gotten ages ago for a song. I only stuck myself once or twice with the pins and did not have to rip out any seams. Amazing!
I have discovered that I have a heretofore-unknown love of piping. I could make and sew piping all day long. Please, send me something else to pipe!! It's so fun.
The skirt turned out a bit shorter than I wanted, but it's still super cute and much more my speed than the peach-colored fabric that matched nothing in my house and didn't look right at all. I'm happy with it!
It's adorable!
