Couch Reupholstering with tablecloth from Target makeover

My couch has see a lot through the years. Our couch as been with us since I started dating my hubby over seven years ago. It has gone through two cats, a dog and one child soon to be a second one. It needs a lot of lovin for all the abuse it has gotten over the years.

Its not a perfect reupholstering job since it my first time reupholstering the entire sofa. I have never sew such a big project. It took me about 3 night to finish the coach. Do you believe that I did the entire thing for only $25!! 
 
I went to target and found table clothes on clearance for $8 so I purchase two tablecloth measuring 70'' x 84'' and one $6 measuring 60 ''x 84'' as well as a set of napkins for $3! I love target clearance sale during the fall. 
 
 
 
I just dived into it and started sewing and measuring and figuring thing out as I went. My sewing is not perfect but it will do. 
 

 I used the napkins as small pillows and all of the tablecloth to cover the couch. I did not have enough to cover all the larger pillows so I decide to use an accent color. My hubby has been in love with blue lately so I used extra fabric I had stashed away for it. However, I am starting to think that I might make new ones in white instead. 
 What do you think?
 
 
Stay Crafty,
