When Craig and I drove to town to pick up my sewing machine, he wanted to stop by a furniture store where I had spotted a chair I really liked thinking it would be perfect for an empty corner in our living room. It was discontinued and thus being offered at a great price. He decided to pick it up for me. I felt more than a little spoiled (and guilty!) since we had just shelled out a small fortune to have my machine refurbished. But I do LOVE it. It matches a lamp we already had perfectly. It's a very tempting little spot to read. I hope this summer to paint the hutch next to it black and then give it a bit of a stain glaze to age it.

Love it!!! Looks great.
How wonderful - your chair is beautiful!
As if my stash was not enough, my friend is going through her grandmother's two houses (one used for storage) - and she was a seamstress... plus, she saved everything, including greeting cards from the 40s. I came home with a bagful last night.
Thanks for the comments! The Hoss coincidence made me smile.
What a pretty chair! I love the carved legs.
Hey! Glad you're doing the coat thing too.
I'm excited about it, Lindsay, but really intimidated as well. I've never made a coat. And what I want to make is kind of over-the-top... :(
Oh how sweet of your husband...The pillows look like they were made to go their...MISSY
