Dressed Up Dining Chairs: Cushion Covers turned into dining chair covers, curtains as knee covers or camisoles

They also had moth holes, so I put them out of the house onto the balcony chairs. They lay scrumched up, untidy. I did not want to carry them back through the house to the bin for fear of spreading the moths or most cases. Eventually I decided they looked untidy and I should shake them out and fold them up. I folded them over the backs of the plastic chairs. Then I decided to slit them down one of the four edges so that the fabric could go over the chairbacks. The holes at the back are completely invisible. I could cut off the back of the cushions, sew up the holes, and use them to cover the seats. The balcony is protected by the one overhead so this part of the balcony against the back wall is not affected by rain. One of the buttons from the centre is missing, probably in my button box. The other one fell off....
