The Fabric of My Life…

So, I’ve mentioned my couch fetish before. The fact that the perfect couch–and the definition of that is wide and deep for me–stops me in my tracks, makes me consider where yet another one might fit into my life and house is no secret. So, due to the fact that my planned post has been erased by word press three times, I’m putting it on hold and leaping over to this…

Guess which couch in my house goes with this material.

Yeah, I know you have no clue what my couch inventory includes, but go ahead guess. Is this the material that wraps around a vintage couch, modern one, living room, dining room (yes every dining room needs a place where weary eaters can rest between courses) basement? Is it on a Queen Anne, overstuffed, dainty victorian???

  1. Nice material, and it looks like it could weather cat and dog saliva, melted popsicles, blood, mud, and coffee.

    I wish we had a new couch! We’ve inherited ours and it is so hideous it is breathtaking. It’s an ugly color, the texture of the fabric is scratchy and icky, and you sink into it most uncomfortably. But hey, it was free! My husband says we can get rid of it if I ever sell a book.

    Sigh.

  2. Hey Mary, this fabric is actually on a 70 year old couch and of all the ones that we own, only two of them are less than 20 years old. That sounds horrible, only two, but like I said, I have a thing…

    And, I can’t tell you how many things are on my list of “when I sell a book” or better yet, when the book is a best seller. Now that’s a list worth looking at.

  3. SEVENTY YEARS OLD? And it still looks THAT good? If we had that couch for SEVEN years, it would be in tatters.

    Wow — you must have a lot of couches! Great for when people drop by and want to crash, isn’t it? I suspect if anyone ever had to sleep on our couch, we’d have them out of the house in short order. Maybe I could advertise that useful function if we ever get around to selling it…
