My mother did needlepoint for the seats of 7 old farm pressed back chairs from the farm in Indiana and it took her a couple of years to finish them, but when installed on the chairs they were exquisite--far prettier than the pressed cardboard, leather, or cane seats that one normally finds in those chairs and more comfortable, too.</p><p>Respect the time the person who did the needlepoint, have it cleaned, and reuse it even if you do not reuse it on this chair.</p><p>Barbara[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
