Step #6.
With the fabric front facing up, attach the skirt
using sewing pins. You can either do this on the ottoman
itself, or on the floor. Start at the opposite side of the
finished section and work your way around. Be sure to test
the ottoman cover over the ottoman and make any necessary
adjustment, before moving on to the next step.
Step #7.
Sew the ottoman skirt to the ottoman but leave the corners
for the moment. Once the ottoman slipcover is sewn, turn it
inside out, then fit over the ottoman, fold the fabric in
the corners, then fasten in place using sewing pins.
Step #8.
Sew the ottoman slipcover corners to fix the folds
in place.
Step #9
If you have any tie-backs remaining from the original
loveseat slipcover, you can tie them for added beauty. You
can also add them into the design by slipping them between
the skirt and top as you sew.
Tip
For your ottoman slipcover to come out 100%
perfect, it’s a good idea to sew the skirt by hand first.
Use wide stitches as this will be a temporary sewing job.
You can then fit the slipcover over the ottoman and make
small adjustments, sewing by hand again. Move over to the
machine only once the ottoman slipcover is ready for its
final sewing.
