If I can't be sewing this week then I can at
least be dreaming about it...Ha Ha...
These are my awesome printed coffee sacks that I have
managed to source from one of the local coffee shops, I am
going to cut them up and construct them into some exterior
soft furnishings for my back patio/pergola area....
This vintage cot was a thrifty find and is going to be a
daybed/seat eventually and I plan to make up some
unique cushions for it...
I am on the hunt for an old cot mattress at the moment to use
for the seating cushion, I did price some foam from the foam
shop but may have to take out a second mortgage on the
house to afford it so I will have to be thrifty in my search
for something a tad cheaper....
I couldn't resist this cute cushion when I saw it in my
local Kmart the other day, perfect for a dreamer like me.....
Until next time, Happy Stitching Dreaming

I'm sure that cot will look great when you are finished with it....
Hello Kate,
Our children all slept in a cot like that, got it from a family friend and repainted it several times according to the child. Look up some of the baby swap sites on the net, you will most likely find a mattress for the cot.
Have fun with the cushion making.
Happy days.
Bev.
It's going to be lovely. Can't wait to see it after you work your magic xx
I think you've just started a run on coffee sacks! Great idea.
Cot will turn out beautifully, I'm sure. Coffee sacks are cool! xo Suze
Beautiful cot can't wait to see what you do with it..
It would look great with a ticking mattress.... stuffed, like in the old days..... Love your coffee bags... any chance you could get me one?
