Crafts CouncilDirectoryElla Jenkins DesignsFlying Scotsman Vintage Parker Knoll ChairAboutThis chair was inspired by my location - Little Bytham which has famous connections to the railways. A vintage Parker Knoll armchair was given a full refurbishment and re-upholstered in 100% British wool. The textile design was created using applique, machine embroidery and some fabric painting. Careful attention was paid to the details on Flying Scotsman due to the father-in-law being a steam train enthusiast. It must be good as it sold to someone who works at the Railway Museum in York!Ella Jenkins DesignsStamford, EnglandFlying Scotsman Chair 1, Photo: Ella Jenkins DesignsVintage Parker Knoll chair with Flying Scotsman designFlying Scotsman Chair 3 detail, Photo: Ella Jenkins DesignsVintage Parker Knoll chair with Flying Scotsman design detailFlying Scotsman Chair 4 back, Ella Jenkins DesignsBack of chairFlying Scotsman Chair 6, Photo: Ella Jenkins DesignsVintage Parker Knoll chair with Flying Scotsman design.
