It's one of those old sewing machine tables that the sewing machine flips up from inside. Isn't it awesome!? Then I found this beauty to go with.
Maybe not much to look now but it will when I am done. I went the fabric store to see what I could find thinking I was going to paint it a turquoise color but then I found this and loved it and decided it had to go on my chair.
While I was painting I noticed a little label that said DEBBY on it and I couldn't help but wonder who Debby was and the things she sewed and how old she was if she was even alive still. Oh the stories this table could tell if it could talk. After a lot of time (that I should have spent studying) I came up with this
I replaced the knob, gave the new chair a nice fluffy pad to cushion my bum with the many hours I will spend sewing and I added some brown streaks here and there to give it an older look. I just used regular old ink for stamps. Is that allowed? All in all I was happy the way it turned out. I better get sewing!
