Sit-In

For several months our second-hand furniture has been looking pretty sad. The cushions on our wicker sofa and chairs (2) were covered with thin cotton fabric (like a cheap summer dress) which was faded all over and split in several places on almost every cushion, making it look like the knees or rear end of a really "fashionable" pair of blue jeans. This is the only "before" photo I have. You can only see one small tear, but can at least see the pattern and the fading. Imagine several full length tears on each cushion.

This week Max had the cushions recovered and here is the result. African without being too loud for snoozing; true upholstery fabric; and nice workmanship. We keep the sofa on the veranda, where Whit or Max can often be found with a good book.

"Good book" may or may not include this one, Batteries in a Portable World, a treatise on re-chargeable batteries (how many copies can it have sold?). It is interesting when you have something specific to learn - and is otherwise excellent for napping.
