Ironing Board Cover

While I wasn't posting very much, I have been pretty busy.  My old ironing board cover was so...icky and thin, I finally decided to make my own.  Since the highest setting on my iron is cotton, I decided to make the whole thing out of cotton.  2 yards of a pretty purple fabric (that I liked but couldn't imagine putting in a quilt) at $3.99/yard.   Plus a craft-sized cotton batting and some cotton yarn I had lying around and I was in business.  I never even unfolded the batting, as the packaging had it folded just where I would have folded it anyway!  Plus a little leftover for combating my fear of quilting (to make a test sandwich).  Ain't it purty?
