Quilted Chairs

In our struggling economy 

it's common to see 

web sites 

with DIY Tutorials

repaint old furniture

with bright new colors.

It's impressive to know that

it's now  

cool 

 to

decorate our living spaces

using the oft repeated mantra 

 Make Do

Revamp

or

Make Old New Again

Did you know that the term

Repurpose

actually became an official word in 1984?

 That's why I was especially interested 

to see these

Quilted Chairs

on display at the

Arizona Quilters Guild Show

 So what do you think?

 Are you ready to take grandma's old chair

and add a few half square triangles 

in Kaffe fabrics?

I might possibly get away with

 the blue one in my sewing room,

but I know Mr. Cactus

would put his foot down on the

hot pink number.

The mantra in our home

would soon

chant to the

Pig Latin version

Ix-nay on the Air-chay
