loving vinyl

I love those neat little finds when cleaning up. I was cleaning out my kitchen cabinets and found a never used vinyl table cloth I bought a while ago, because I fell in love with the flowered pattern. It was an impulse buy. We never even use a tablecloth, but I was hoping we would start using tablecloths now that we have such a nice one. But of course we never did...
I hate being wasteful, so I decided to make a chair cushion for our tripp trapp high chair. Our daughter just started eating "real" food, and as all moms know that gets somewhat messy. I thought it would be nice to have a cushion that you don't have to wash, but that you can just clean off with a wet cloth.  After working on a pattern for two full evenings, I managed to make a cushion all by myself, which is pretty amazing because I SUCK at sewing!
