This is beyond brilliant! I'm so impressed with how you figured out how to make each of the chairs. They're so unique. The amount of details you captured on the first chair are so impressive. I tried to guess how you did it and I was way off 😆 The fabric choices are perfect. I love how you aged the leather chair and covered up the cut edges. The removable cushions are so clever. Thank you so much for doing this Collab! It was such a joy.

Yes, TiffSniffer from Etsy made the little afghan specifically for the Fairfield in 1970s colors. Normally you'd never tell how much a gift cost, but it was only $15, including shipping from Canada. She was very responsive and mailed it to me within days of our first contact.

You both amaze (and amuse) me with your talents. My talents are SO limited that I am going to leave the same comment on both channels................by the way, I am blessed to have found each of your channels just as you were getting noticed/started - the down side of which is that I have seen all of your videos and have nothing to binge watch.
