The hanging chair

When we moved here almost 5 years ago some friends who were leaving the island gave us their old  hanging garden chair, they had had it for many years and it's been patched up and taped together many times and until it finally falls to pieces we will keep hanging it up in the summer. It's the kind of chair that people just gravitate towards and then sit in, gently swinging back and forth with a dreamy look on their face. Unless you are Clara in which case it's a fab swing! This year I decided to make new covers for it and have used a beautiful piece of fabric from a shop in Maine called On Board Fabrics. The chair is also extremely popular with the cats but to avoid all cat type accidents the cushions will be brought in at night!
