Child-Sized Deck chairs

We decided to make 2 of these chairs, and like others have said, we needed one more 1x2@ 8ft to get all of the cuts. Other than that small hiccup, there were no issues and we really enjoyed making these. We used pine wood for the frames and stained them in Mirimax's "English Walnut". The fabric is from Joanns which cost me $11.99/yd (40% off). I wasn't planning on spending that much but after all of the supplies these chairs actually cost us close to $20 a chair. If I would have shopped around for better prices, I could have likely found them, but wanted to get them done soon! These would make a great gift!
