Ironing Board Cover

I have been looking for weeks for a new ironing board cover but mine is an extra wide one which I am having a hard time finding one that fits, that doesn't cost 25 dollars+ and isn't a plain boring fabric. So... I decided to make my own. My friend Jen made one awhile ago that was super cute so I just used the same tutorial that she used. Here is the tutorial. The only thing I did differently is that I did not get a second fabric to use as padding underneath the cover, I just used the padding mine already had. I think it turned out pretty cute. It cost me only about $7.00 total, I was able to use the fabric of my choice (which I got at hobby lobby using their 40% off coupon on their website, which is good for up to 10 yards of fabric) and made it in under an hour. I do not sew unless it is straight lines and SUPER SUPER simple, and this was a piece of cake, even for me! Before
