Colonel Mustard's new look

I've had a few spare minutes on my hands. . . it's rare.  I decided to tear apart my model from the blog header above, the old yellow chair.  It's innards and bones are now taking up space in my office.  I'm afraid that this may lead to a new blog header in the not-so-distant future.  Maybe a different old chair.  I have several to choose from.

Colonel Mustard is inevitably getting a makeover. 

I think I've finally settled on the chevron stripes.  We'll see if it ends up this way. . . but the visual sure makes my day.  Hopefully this all works out.  Wish me luck.  I've never reupholstered anything this detailed.

Everything from the board is already in the room, except for the chair. . . .(insert climactic music here) DUN, DUN, DUNNN!  If that doesn't leave you with a foreboding feeling in your gut, I don't know what will.

You may never see Colonel Mustard again.
