Little project: closet chair for Hubby

I took advantage of a sunny and beautiful 66 degree day to finally get that chair painted for the closet.  For $11 and some spare time I got a solid wood chair with a seat cushion that matches the chairs in the master bedroom.  
I started off by digging out the leftover fabric.  Hey - it was an expensive project and I was going to use up as much of that fabric as I could!
Which meant that it had to pieced together, since it was just mainly scraps.
And then I top stitched the seams with a zig zag stitch so the sections would be sturdy.  I tried to match the pattern as much as possible, but it has something like a 13 inch repeat.
 There is a tiny nub of this fabric left. 
 
I stapled it all around the chair pad.  
I primed and spray painted  the chair a matte black.
A stylish addition to the closet!
