Our Wal Mart has a decent fabric section, and I always go through their remnants that have been marked down when the bolts are almost empty. Recently, I picked up remnants on two different occasions. First I found the gold colored fabric below, and a week or so later, I bought the print fabric. Both were priced very reasonably and together were about six or seven dollars. I knew when I found the print, I would use it to make pillow covers for the sofa and love seat in the family room. I had forgotten the gold remnant, but when I got home and put the print fabric in my fabric stash, I saw how well they coordinated. I made a mental note of that, and yesterday, decided to get busy and make my pillow covers. I decided to use the print for the front, and the gold for the back of the pillows. First, I ironed the two remnants, so they would be easy to cut. Next, I measured the 4 pillows for which I wanted to make covers, and gathered my supplies together....
