I may be winning the battle with Desert Bloom but I'm sure the war is lost. Whatever, I'm back in the shop for a little bit the last couple of days.
This morning I cleaned up the leg blanks:

It was quick work, a couple or three passes with a #5 on each facet did the job.
Not so quick work will be cleaning up the seat blank. The bandsaw did a good job getting close to the line, but the rest will be like that movie where John Candy was trying to go home for Christmas. Only instead of planes and trains it will be planes, spokeshaves, drawknives, chisels, and whatever else I can find to cut and smooth the edge.

Once the edges are cleaned up I'll decide which side will be the bottom and mark out the mortise locations and sight lines before beveling the bottom edges. More toys will come out to do the mortises and tenons and finish shaping the seat. I still have not decided on arms or not.
