Wow. Seems everyone jumped on the inflation bandwagon.. I am sure costs have increased. But that boat was like 65 k 4 years ago

I got some of my own sticker shock. Went to have these 3 cushions simplest re covered possible no logo plain white. Everything underneath is good.

And was quoted. 500.00 bucks. I was like ok sounds good.. for 3 cushions…. They’re not big. Then the person said he ment 500.00. Per cushions .. and now I am thinking some white duck tape. To get me tru until next year.

I have a vintage Singer commercial sewing machine, replaced parts, new motor, and don’t know how I lived without it….
