@mchin: that sounds fabulous, do you have a source? I love menswear patterns and have been looking for a good grey mix that will (hopefully) hide the dog hair better.

@House Voyeur & mjs7640: thanks for affirming my fears!

@laurenjean.jns: thanks for the tip!

It's probably also worth mentioning that I intend to do the re-upholstery myself, so leather may not be the best choice since I doubt my machine is durable enough for it... haha

@valleyval: All of the fabrics were purchased from Mary Jo's near Charlotte NC.

I do like the idea of leather but am afraid it will be cost-prohibitive. I'd be interested in any sources for it that might be relatively inexpensive.

I did come across a vinyl ostrich on ebay that intrigued me but I feel it's a bit much for a sofa and not enough fun for the chair. I hadn't considered ultrasuede, I'll have to look into that! Thanks for your input so far!

We moved from San Diego to Charlotte in 2008 and it cost us about $3000 thru Penske truck rental.

That reminds me of the beauty shop on Ugly Betty. Link to photo: http://bp0.blogger.com/_Skoh-lE8sO0/SCOgvFwLFLI/AAAAAAAAH6s/FgOwI3VOFPw/s400/215 Diaz Hilda 13 Hair Chop.jpg
