The way to love someone
is to lightly run your finger over that person's soul
until you find a crack,
and then gently pour your love into that crack.

yesterday ... and this morning, finished one of the Comfy chairs

two big fluffy loose pillows for the backs

really was happy to
find" the dotted fabric
it works well at making all the others relate

other side of same pillow
at monogram shop
for a single simple font letter
8", turquoise like the piping
the conservative side

ended up hand sticking the four final closure seams
I secretly like that tedious small work
(right side front)

stapling on the skirt this morning
polka dot fabric doesn't show
(but helps define the chairs personality I think : )

here it is finished
waiting on the back pillow
I sure was hoping to get the job bucket and the air compressor out of the room while I'm away ... hoping to wrap up both chairs but running a bit short of time today.

here is the "before"
it had good potential
Probably have 3 hours worth of work to complete the companion chair ... then next project (makes me smile).

p.s. here is the stack of pillows already in the room + enough left over yardage and the perfect trim to make one more with the new fabric ... bonus round!  And that makes my living room "refresh" complete!

DeAnn, the chair is vastly improved, and appears quite inviting to sit down in, and put up ones feet.

Growing up, I never got the comfy chair as an "incentive" to confess my wrong doings. It was always the straight, hard backed chair. And there was no coffee, or Nestle Quick at 11, either.
