Fabulous Hot Pink Sofa!

[girlyswot]

Fabulous hot pink is not only a description of the sofa I have just bought, it is actually the name of the fabric I have chosen to have it covered in. I took some of my curtain fabric and also the quilt top I've made to go as a throw on the sofa. My friend and the shop assistant and I were flicking through the choices and all immediately said 'That's the one' as soon as we saw the pink. I had been thinking about a mid-blue, but I'm very, very excited about the pink. The fabric is 100% cotton, machine washable with a nice textured weave that I think will wear really well.

It's this sofa in the medium width. I like it because it has relatively narrow, non-sloping arms, so you get a lot of sitting space for the width of the sofa. It's really comfy and snuggly.

I did check out the clearance section, just in case. There was one utterly fabulous bright pink sofa with appliqued flowers, reduced from £2200 to £599. It would have fitted in the Old Shed, though I wouldn't have been able to get in the bathroom. The sofa was so lovely that I did begin to seriously contemplate this option. There was also a very nice little sofa in a duck egg blue for just £99 that I absolutely would have bought - except it had already been sold. :( Should have gone last week. Though the pink one will be nicer. ;)

Sounds wonderful - what's the name of the fabric? I did of course have to look around the site, and found *the* sofa for you: "Charlie tight covered in leather." Sounds interesting... *g*

The fabric is called Fabulous and the colour is Hot Pink (though the website doesn't show that option).

lol - you know you are completely nuts when you consider not being able to access your bathroom for the right sofa

Maybe she has gotten used to going to use her parent's loo?
