Susie's Rocker with Ottoman

You have seen how plaid or "tartan" has been making a comeback, well this chair's fabric never left or even realized the decade had changed. This was a rocker done in the early 90's, it was time to give it a face lift. Also, take a look at this ottoman, I have no words.
       

          
Susie decided this chair was to be in her newly designed sun-room as a comfortable yet stylish piece. So the fabric chosen is sun-safe and full of stripes. The light wood was covered with a French brown finish which in turn makes the light fabric pop. Next was the ottoman, I replaced all of the do-dads with some extra padding around it and a sleek rounded shape. It is so much more inviting than before. I have never worked with pleats, so this was a great learning experience. Special thanks to my parents who helped out with this one. You two are the best!
