To weave or not to weave...?
I feel happy about my chair, even though it is not as tightly done as when the upholstrer of Green Furniture Sweden make T-shirt Chair 'rag editions' out of fabric left overs from their sofa manufacturing. And with a small choice of rags and worn cloths, colours are what they are (again not as neatly chosen as by the uphostrer that has a large variety to pick from) - but they are colours of my and my family's history...! I did not get to describe the fabric from my grand parents sofa, the cloth that we bought to cover our baby-girl Saga in Dominican Republic (Saga now soon 10 years old), etc, etc... :-)

The place of weaving made it all...
Time passes...
I moved the chair under construction to another room, and suddenly I did not naturally pass it every day anymore...
...and the project stalled.
Until I understood the mechanism, and I moved it in front of the TV, decided I had taken enough photos of cloths and weaving and that writing down all the stories of the cloths would stop me from getting the work done - I quickly finished the whole chair in one late evening while watching a film. Yet some detailes can be adjusted, but it feels nice to at last have a chair that can be used!
