Chair time

We receint bought a folding Campaign chair at an antiques fair but the chair and back covers were ripped and it needed some TLC.  Bargain price of £15 knocked down from £45.

An excuse for more applique


I decided on a sheep for the seat. The horns are a beautiful very fine cord that Ingot from staystitching.com to make myself a skirt.

 and for the back a random selection of seed heads of the sort that you might find sheep nibbling around
The back is tacked on but I  need another pair of hands to help with the webbing of the seat.

I am thinking on sticking with brown for the braid around the edges but need quite a wide one to cover the previous tack holds.
