Anne, I am so happy for you with this new find. I have loved this quintessential pattern like forever. I eventually purchased a sofa upholstered in this pattern from The Seraph when they were in Sturbridge, MA. The sofa did not make the cut when I moved into my condo, but I do have pillows covered with this beautiful flamestitch. The sofa and chair look great in the tavern room.

[@AnneClay]

@@barbaradzitko1826 wow interesting Barbara! Glad you kept the pillows!

[@barbaradzitko1826]

@@AnneClay Me too! Every time I see furniture covered in this fabric it tugs at my heart.

[@joneswdmj]

[@joannetaggart4136]

Oh Anne, this was so interesting. The diamond flame pattern is a favorite and to learn that it was prominent in rich family homes long ago was neat. And you, how cool you found the piece of furniture. To learn the history of how Angel House came to be is exciting to me. And the wood on your ceiling is something I love and would love to see in a room in my home. It's so rustic and warm. Thank you so much for bringing this to share with us. I sure am glad you've created your channel. You're awesome. Now, it would be wonderful if you could put your feet up, have a cup of tea and relax.

[@AnneClay]

@@joannetaggart4136 oh Joanne… yes! Feet up with a cup of tea! Thank you!❤️

I have two Webster Farm chairs from Angel House with the exact historic flame fabric. Purchased them both together in 2000 and still have them both!

[@AnneClay]

You must love them!

[@RhondaKunkel-v6z]

Thank you, Anne, for this video. I’m in awe of your home, and love that you’re trying to give it more authentic furnishings. The sofa and chair were such a steal of a deal!! Learning the history of the flame stitch was intriguing to me. I’ve always liked it! By the way, you look wonderful! Merry Christmas!

[@AnneClay]

@@RhondaKunkel-v6z thank you so much Rhonda!!! Merry Christmas!

I have a flame stitch wing chair-and-a-half (also known as a “man and dog chair” I had made by Angel House Designs back in 2004. Everyone who visits us always picks that chair first, it’s so roomy and comfy! You’re looking good Anne!

My gosh…I love it! Our house is an old school house converted to a home by his parents. The living room was designed as a tavern. HE calls it his man cave 🤢🙄. I can sit and dream the way I want…I mean….would have it. LOL………Your tavern room is extremely close to what I would do. MERRY CHRISTMAS! Looking great, Anne! 😘

[@AnneClay]

[@tomgeary5110]

The place looks beautiful Anne. I have a wing chair done in the Historic Flame that I purchased a number of years ago and love it. Roz is so correct, purchasing this flame stitch fabric has gotten extremely expensive if you can find it. You are fortunate to have that sofa.

[@AnneClay]

@@tomgeary5110 you do Tom? Yes this fabric would be many hundreds of dollars a yard!

[@paulabrown257]

Good morning Happy Christmas Eve. I have a whole new appreciation for flame fabric. I purchased two smaller wing back chairs more like parsons chair for a dinning table. They were about 10 years old and in perfect condition from the company Johnson Benchworks. Was not live at first site however having traveled from Tennessee to Ohio to get them I decided I would use them around the house somewhere. I gave just recently changed out an area in our kitchen eating area to a tavern area and the chairs have found a new home. Thanks Anne for all your wonderful videos.

Hi Anne. Liza from Vermont here. Thank you for sharing that amazing information about flame stitch. The pieces look so good in your tavern. Looks so different from when Kelly and I were there for the Meet and Greet Dinner. Anyway, I love it! I have the exact same sofa in the exact same flame stitch. I found it on Marketplace too! I hope you, Tom, Kami, and your whole family have the merriest of Christmases! Cheers!!

@@suewilson163 oh wow interesting Sue. It is a busy print and I have to say the very first time I saw flamestitch I didn’t like it either. It’s grown on me through the years!

Merry Christmas Eve! Enjoy your videos, especially around the holidays. Roz and Sue at Angel House have helped us with a settee and some upholstery pieces using the Old Red Shelburne Stencil. This vid really opened my eyes to the FlameStitch pattern...could look great in the Tavern room of our 1727 Connecticut Saltbox...Maybe you could do a show about Tavern Rooms in CT or NE houses?...I'm sure you could find a bunch! Thanks again for the video!

[@AnneClay]

@@JohnGill-k4g ooh that’s a great idea John!!!

[@maryheineman4347]

I used to have the historic flame on my Angel House loveseat. I probably had it 25+ years. At that time, there was someone there named “Val” that did the work on my piece. I also had a chair, I think it was an Essex ? Beautiful tavern room. Thanks for sharing!

[@AnneClay]

@@maryheineman4347 hi Mary… thanks for sharing your story!

@ oh cool! Thanks!!

[@dorismatthews4416]

I believe that Val was the original owner and Roz's father. I live up the road from Angel House and have some furniture from there though not flame stitch.😊 Keep on keepin' on
