It needed some love. And a cushion. I didn't know how, nor want to attempt recaning it, so I just hot glued the dangling loose pieces of cane.
My goal was to buy nothing and to use up some of my supply stash. I traced a cushion shape on some old wrapping paper and transferred the pattern to some stretch denim I had.
I sewed parallel seams across the two panels to connect them and then stuffed the channels with fabric scraps - lots of them.
The edges were finished with a foldover bias tape edge made of the blue denim. It's actually pretty comfortable!
