Here is a chair I bought from Habit for Humanity, coast $12.00 My brother-in-law painted it for me I did most of the work myself, removing tacks, old burlap and springs which were the hardest to get out, added webbing across the back to hold in the back cushion in, I did crazy patch quilting with decorative stitches and had it machine quilted. what do u think?

Thanks Chris, the only thing it needs is a foot stool for my feet.

thanks Sometimes it is hard to judge your own work, especially when you have worked on it for a while.

You have returned it to being a work of art. I love the red which makes it so cheery.

It is pieced then the decorative stitches added. with border and zipper making it easy to slip on and off if I should change my colors.
