I still haven't gotten over a case of procrastination and taken care of those curtains in the den, but I did sew up some new pillows and recovered the ottoman.
These pillows, ca. 1982 were part of a set Hubby had on his bed in college. They have been great over the years as extra couch cushions and floor pillows.
They were pretty floppy and I wanted them a little smaller,
so I pinned them a bit to make a more square pillow form.
I used my favorite method, the envelope enclosure.
No zippers or velcro or buttons.

Easy to remove and wash.
I ended up making one apricot colored and three light jade green. And I had a little upholstery fabric left from the ottoman so I made an accent pillow, too.
The first time I re-covered the ottoman I used leftover fabric from the couch project.
It was necessary to cover because of the damage at the seams.
The fabric I chose is a floral that I think will lighten the room.
Lastly, I hauled all the fabric scraps out and sorted and folded. A lot of this went into the donate pile.
Done!
Ready for relaxin'.
