Featured My Favourite Chair.

Thank you, I was thankful for the curved beading needles, I snapped an awful lot of them

 

I thought I would resurrect this thread ....
After all these years my chair needed some attention, the seat had sunk a little bit and the braid was falling off.
I had this lovely Victorian fabric from a skirt and I was able to get some decent pieces from it.
Back in 2009 I didn't have any Victorian fabric.
All in all I think it's an improvement.

 

Still a fantastic job!

 

Thank you, I had forgotten how much hard work it was

 

After putting in a lot of hard work like that required, I'm sure that you treasure it. Enjoy it. I wonder if your descendants can appreciate the piece? When you're gone, what happens to it? Those pieces that I have and restored are not appreciated and now at 80 yo I know that I must now ask which grandchild and which g-grandchild might want each piece and designate them as gifts. I too have almost forgotten the hard work, but I do enjoy the piece daily.

 

That is a an amazing restoration job!

 

It was a wreck before, but now... whoooo. Whoever ends up with that darned well better appreciate it!

 

I just noticed that piece across the top on the back isn't very flat, I missed that somehow...
That will bug me so I'll have to fix it

 

Thank you all for your nice comments

 

I couldn't leave it like that so this morning I took it off and redid it, much better now

 

That is a real work of art. Well done!

 

Thank you
