shoes for chairs

My daughter wouldn't move the chairs at the dining table herself. She said there would be a lot of noise, squeaking sounds. She can't lift it up like adults when she moves chairs. THEN, I have to so something about it. Another excuse for using my sewing machine. (Why do I need excuses using my sewing machine? Everytime I do handmade stuff, I can't help think about the zillion more urgent things I have to do first. So I need excuses. I do....) What is that fabric? mmm, that looks like....the bottom hem of my polo shirt.
