[amayausers] Re: directors chair backs

hmmm, sounds like you and my husband think alike!  We had a small sail boat, 
sold it and bought a motor home, then bought a bigger motor home...sold that 
and went back to sailing

  While I was in Iraq last year the wife sold the sail boat but what I found 
out about boats was that the only kind of a boat to have was a bigger one.  Now 
we live in Nevada and have a motorhome and we are finding out the same thing is 
common with motorhomes.

      Well it looks we more than Amayas is common.

      The marina where we keep our boat is how I ended up doing the captains 
chairs last year.

      My hubby suffers from "two-foot-itis" and we upgraded from a 22 foot 
Larsen to a Sundancer 300 this year. Yeh, just a little bigger. LOL

        Hi Linda!

        Oh, I know what you are talking about.  My husband and I are "yachties" 
as well.  We own a Catalina 34 sailboat and am fully aware of  what B-O-A-T 
stands for!   Actually, it was our sail boat that got us into the embroidery 
industry!  (long story).

        Thank you for the web site info.  I will check it out.  I have done 
repairs on the existing chairs that they have at the club (replacing the 
backing due to wear) but have not embroidered on them before.  The fabric backs 
that I bought from Pier One are just the "testers" that I am going to sew out 
on before tackling the backs to the chairs that the club purchased.

        Thank you again for all the info!  I really do appreciate it!

          Barbara,
          We "yachties" are very particular about our boats!  B-O-A-T stands 
for Bring Out Another Thousand  in case you did not know that.

          check out www.tltinc.com 
          They sell the chairs and also sell backs with the piece of fabric to 
cover the embroidery. I have done the Pier One chair backs and I must admit 
that when I walked into my customer's store and the chair back was facing me 
ALL I COULD SEE WAS THE BOBBIN AND BACKING.   Thank goodness it was a temporary 
position for the chairs. But I will order them from this company with the cover 
the next time I have a customer asking for them.

          I have seen this company at one of the trade shows and they were 
selling the kids' director chairs for $10 there.
