the perfect patch

I currently have a beautiful vintage couch sitting in my parent's garage that needs to be recovered. While brainstorming ideas I came across these beautiful patchwork pieces. It might be an overly-ambitious DIY project...but a girl can dream! I love the way they bridge two of my favourite aesthetics- romantic and country.
