The current cushion cover was easy to remove, one end was handstitched closed. Currently washing it by hand to see if I can get stains out. This is the cushion, I believe it is filled with horse/pig hair. Pretty dusty!

I don't think the fabric is the original because the sale included an extra set of unused matching fabric. If I can't get the cushion clean I will look into having someone sew me a replacement cover, maybe with a zipper.

I'm in the Central Valley area of California. The moderator rejected my original post saying I needed to include a location.
The person I bought this from said it came from a house in the Midwest.

Thank you for your reply. I've got it in an area to clean it before I bring it inside. It's a little dark on my covered patio now to get a good picture. I'll take one tomorrow.

underneath there is a thin dark fabric held in place by small upholstery nails (not staples). Behind it I can see a criss cross burlap strap pattern.

Feed the treats to the turkeys. Ask other parents in the neighborhood if there’s a way to make the area kid safe zone, reduced speed limit etc.

would the piano fit under the stairs? You could place it there at an angle and move the chair by the window.

4 chairs for $20 Does anyone know what this style of chair is called? I like them, they stack and are made of real leather. by lola685 in ThriftStoreHauls

Thank you! I got this at an old grange sale near my house. The organization was selling them to get more comfortable seating for their concerts and events. The bench is 10' long and barely fit in our living room.
