I recently set up a wonderful sewing studio and it seemed like I had oceans of space. I purchased a couple of used easy chairs off Craig's list to reupholster and have in my studio for 'taking it easy'...read a magazine, take a nap...whatever. Well none of that has happened and now I need the space! I reupholstered one chair and it was a bugger... so I put the other on off for a while...a long while. I was not eager to start this one and as a result I did not do the greatest job on it... sooo, I made a quilt to cover it up!...seems to be a theme for me. Any way, here are my photos

I like what you did with the chair, and it looks real comfy.

I like the pizazz. What a great chair to sit in and read the latest magazine.

I doesn't even look like a cover-up. It looks like you planned it that way from the first.

Now THAT is creativity!!!!! It went from having a utilitarian second chance to being the focal point of a whole room!!!
WOW!!!! just seems like an understatement!
