woman vs chair - round 9

I did it! The chair is finished, I am sitting on it and writing this post. It is so comfortable but I might be biased after fighting with it for nine rounds. I'm even jumping for joy :) Can you believe that in mid-February the chair still looked like this?

Did you finish a project that made you really happy lately?

    It looks AMAZING!! Wow, it came out so well, and with how much sweat equity you put into it I'm not surprised! That fabric looks so comfy and soft. I can't believe you reupholstered that yourself!! I mean, I guess I can given what a DIY-guru you are around your home. I love that picture of you sitting in it. Your hair looks really pretty! (is that weird?) Jump for joy!! You deserve it :)

    Congratulations, Nina! It looks terrific. It has been so fun watching this project from start to finish...Finish being the photo of you sitting in the chair. So cute! No projects to speak of, but I'm thinking of remedying that situation this summer. I wonder what's next for you?

    Great job! Did you take an online class? Or did you just figure it out on your own? I am impressed!

      Lindsay, thank you! I took a class at a local adult school, could have never figured it out by myself. Loved it and am taking a second one right now.
