    These pieces of furniture are amazing! I have copied & pasted all of these pics into a someday file! My best friend has already put in an order for one! I told her my own came first. I have an antique settee that was going to be done in a tapestry but I think I am going to try using a quiltop to upholster it instead! I probably won't get around to it until at least next summer but my husband loved them too and thought we should make one for our house!

    How nice to know your DH has the same taste as you!! They would look beautiful for your home and your settee will turn out better than a tapestry I'm sure!! How fortunate to have one of their pieces in your home!! I have an off-white antique love seat I would love to redo, but there's just no time for it. It'll go in my 'someday' file! haha.

    :D :D ;) ;) ;)

    Did my husband set you up for me to see this site? I went today and got a quote for my high back chair to be reupholstered...going to cost a fortune.
    Believe it or not about 5 years ago, i got book material samples for upholstery and sewed blocks together and kind of pinned and made a loose covering for my chair. Did not like it cause it was loose but went no further.....hmmmmm imagine if i was more creative what i could have done....LOL IN MY DREAMS.

    These are stunning IF ONLY..........
