Iron Board

My ironing board is over seven years old, the fact that I know that was because it was a wedding gift from some fabulous friends.   Anyway, the foam kept bubling underneath, the cover was dirty and getting old.  You're guessing already what I have made, havent you.  Yes, a new ironing board cover.
I laid my old cover on the ground, traced it, allowed some room for some cord casing, cut it out, and sewed.
I also stitched my foam to my board as it kept sliding around.  (not neat, but no one will see :) )
And voila, here it is, a new ironing board cover!   The fabric....the only piece that I had that was long enough to cover the ironing board!  I spend maybe just over half an hour fabricating it!  I even wipped down my iron (which I have never done before, but it was getting dusty)
