It was screaming out for some vibrant fabric. I decided to tackle the upholstery for Sarah's chair using some Thomas Paul "hedge" fabric. I am fairly amateur in my upholstery skills and tools. I use a regular sewing machine, hot glue, and a hand held craft staple gun. For clients, I prefer to leave upholstery jobs to the professionals, but for my little sister, I did this pro bono project myself. The finished chair has a few minor wrinkles and mis-cut pieces that I hid with glued on fabric patches, but overall I'm really pleased with how it turned out.
what a happy chair! good job!
ReplyDeleteLOVE it!
ReplyDeleteIt looks great! I would delete the comments about the rigged parts.
ReplyDeleteDang!! That's a good job, Paw Paw!
ReplyDeleteawesome job, and agree with others, if you never said you had to patch, you'd never know - I read that and can't find any boo boos anywhere. What a skill to have as far as saving money!
