A new place for sitting

I finally got around to cleaning up an old chair and painting it.  I love using fun fabric and adding color to my craft room.  My dad had this chair in his basement for a long time and it was in his "work in progress" pile - he was going to sand it down to the beautiful oak and then refinish it.  But I abducted it and it became a WIP for me.  I did find a carved in branding on one of the pieces, so I think the chairs are kind of old - it would have been nice to see how it started out, who sat on it. . .  it is painted purple now.

I stripped off what was left of the sitting part, spider eggs and all, and then I cut a piece of ply-wood to size and covered it with a thick foam and fabric.  I knew I wanted to do something with that fabric I would see everyday, and this seemed like the perfect project for it.

I feel a goat phase coming on!
