I don’t normally like busy material but I absolutely love the material you used on this. It’s a gorgeous chair. I’d have it in my sitting room in a heartbeat.

[hazelinthewoods]

That’s amazing! Love how it’s not a ton of sewing or worrying about raw edges.

[gaiasmoon]

Thank you for this! Very helpful in understanding how this all works. Anyone else holding your breath when he's cutting the front arm dacron? : ) Those scissors are scary! LOL!

That chair is wild! Also such a small world. Your shop isn’t far south from my sister in law. She owns a seamstress shop in Cambridge. I’m in Boston in the US.

As always GREAT MASTER !!!! CHAPEAU !!!!
Nice armchair with nice fabric
What impresses me about you Maestro is that
I pack the fabric before nailing (I hope to make myself understood) (I don't know English) Instead you (Not just an upholsterer like me) but GREAT ARTIST does not baste the fabric but nails directly immediately What else:
CHAPEAU GREAT
Best Wishes.

You are sooo talented! I’m totally inspired to recover every bit of furniture we own. 🤗

Love love love that fabric. It would be beautiful in a coastal home.

That is a absolutely beautiful chair !!! You made that look 👀 so easy !!! I wonder 💭 IF I could do that ? Should I just put the fabric over the fabric that is there ? Hmm 🤔 Your very really talented to make it look 👀 so gorgeous!!! I wish you were here to help me with this chair. My brother gave me this chair and ottoman and while it is very very cute it doesn’t go with my colors. It’s a dark red, gold and brownish color paisley not my colors at all !!! I have a grey 🛋 couch. A grey and white gingham would be cute 🥰
