    I'm going to have to say Hooty Hoot Returns at Flannel Queen. Loved this collection when it first came out and I'm glad they have revisited it.

    I am planning to start a project involving covering a couple of kids chairs. I have my eye on some laminated chevron striped fabric so they will be easy to wipe down.
