"A few years ago my Nan gave me a small green bucket-shaped arm chair. It's not that special to look at, in fact, it's a bit shabby. My Nan is 93 now and the chair is nearly as old as she is. When she gave me the chair she told me: "There's a lot of money in chairs." I believe she is right. I've decided that this chair is my inheritance - an inheritance to my future. I have decorated the chair with patchwork, embroidery and applique. It tells the story of my life."
