Elizabeth ~ thank you for a question. i like questions, not silly at all. yes. i do. it's a great evening chair...good light there from the West. i also will sit there more because it's directly across from the futon couch. so good vantage point to admire the new cover when it's finished. nice thinking we have similar rocking chairs.
jude ~ maybe 7ft x 6ft? needs to hang over the back of the futon...otherwise whatever is on there ends up in a wad by the end of the day. the "gift of the Universe" piece is 5 X not quite 3. is resting on the rocking chair because i am back to the kantha on the window hanger. needle chant the bottom is close to finished. one more day. sides easier... close xo
Claire ~ Thank You, and am really looking forward to that. in months when there's more time to be in the house, it will make a big difference in how that all feels...thank you for coming by.
I like that you discovered the materials for your 'new' cover from material otherwise discarded. So much of what society throws away is still useful and lovely if we look at it honestly.
Patty ~ i am really looking at this piece of work that someone had the urge to create and then for whatever reason, did not go forward with....really looking.

hello grace, just a silly comment really but I have a rocking chair rather like yours - do you sit and sew in it?

Oh, it's going to be a great cover for the futon.

no, it's waiting. resting while
it waits. listening to the needle
chant of those kantha stitches.
waiting its turn.

perhaps a relative of the one you found...
rofl. i think many many of my quilt tops are just awaiting their handsome prince. or princess i guess. to each their own.
this is so interesting, great to see it all in progress. And nice to see it resting too.
