Time flies!
It was in 2012 that I started to weave some fabric for our dining room chairs (I didn’t know how long it had been so I looked up my post here!). I used cottolin – a blend of cotton and linen for the weaving and colours that are in our living/dining room.
My original thought was to recover the chairs myself – but they needed rewebbing, new padding and the New Zealand wood was so hard that it was difficult to get the staples out and I would need special tools to get new staples back in.
So the fabric sat and waited….and waited…
Finally – just this past week – I took the chairs and fabric in to Kim at Blue Velvet Upholstery. She loved the fabric and the chairs and was happy to work with it and select the sections that would go on each chair.
I just picked them up and I love them!!
Finally! And Marzy approves too 🙂
Happy Weaving,
Terri

OH HAPPY DAY! It was worth the wait – The chairs look fantastic!! And as always, Marzypan has excellent taste!
Thanks! I’m so happy to have them done and I think Kim did a marvelous job on them. All new webbing and stuffing too. I was trying to keep Marzy off them – but that didn’t last long 🙂
They look fabulous Terri! I’m so glad you got them done and are happy with the results. And they are Marzy’s chairs too after all!
Thanks Lynn. It was about time! And yes, Marzy was always on them before, can’t really expect her to stop sleeping them now…
Oh wow! These look fantastic! I like that each one is different.
I bet you’re glad you don’t have 12 chairs.
Thanks Judi! Yes, glad there are not 12 chairs 🙂 Kim, that did the rework of the seats chose the pieces to go on each and I love what she did…
