Grandma's comfy chair

I've been shopping for a comfy chair for the bedroom, something light in color with a tall back. I had an ah-ha moment when I remembered I had a House of Miniatures Chippendale Wing Chair kit. This was part of a miniatures lot I bought, though I never thought I would end up using this kit.

I bought this fabric some time ago, too (don't recall from where - likely a local mini show). I love the fabric, but it's not my usual style...it's rather vintage. Perfect!

So, I'm going to give it a shot. If it ends up being a disaster, it can always go in the attic. Of course, an old wobbly, threadbare chair would fit so well in the Heritage. :D

I like this kit, fabric should work well for the look you want. Maybe tea stained and roughened up with some sandpaper :groucho:

I have this fabric!! I got it at JoAnn's as one of their quilt squares. I love this fabric. The scale and colors are just perfect. I think it will make a great chair.

Joann's has a great selection of mini prints. :yes: I know I didn't get this there, though - it's in a mini self-labeled package. I am looking forward to building some furniture! :D
