Stamped Recovers my Dressing Table Stool

On my recent trip to Barcelona a couple of weeks ago I discovered a great little fabric shop called Nunoya on Carrer de la Palla. It stocked mostly Japanese fabrics including this contemporary design for Kokka. It was hard to choose just one yard but I had to resist going crazy in there, so I chose this version of 'Stamped' by Ellen Luckett Baker. I love them all - so simple and fresh with great colours. So tonight I finally got around to smartening up this 1970's stool that I picked up for a tenner, which had a nasty stained khaki green velour seat. Re-upholstering is so satisfying, though I think this is about the limit of my capabilities, probably doesn't even count as re-upholstery, just re-covering really!
