I really enjoyed working on this family heirloom chair. Its owner had it stored away for a good few years and the foam had perished and gone hard and the cover had a few worn bits from many years of being sat on.

It is now all fresh again with new foam on the frame and new cushions. The fabric is from iLiv and I think was a great choice as it has a retro feel to match the chair 😍.

This lovely wing back with great sentimental value has just gone back to its owners. The fabric used on the back, sides and scatter cushion was also important. It was too thin to use on the high use part of the chair, so I used it on the back and sides and also made a scatter cushion so that it could be seen from all angles. The fabric was a great complement to the chair and fabric.

This big sofa is the reason I have been very quiet lately. It was a total rebuild from the frame up using completely traditional upholstery methods and materials. A massive job which really tested my knowledge and skill. It’s now finished and back in its home and will provide a comfy seat for many years to come. The fabric is from and is Tresco in Peppermint from their Arcadia collection.
Also, I have to say a massive thank you to Fiona from who helped out with sewing, overlocking and making miles of piping 😂. Thanks chum, I’d probably still be working on it if it weren’t for your help 🥰

Definitely the most springs I have tied in one piece of furniture!
I think the most important thing I learned here was to trust myself and my experience rather than over researching to try and find an example of how to do something. Having said that, a couple of videos did help along the way 😝. One from and one from . You guys make it look so easy!
Of course I can’t not mention whose Scandinavian spring techniques course that I went on in October as part of the Festival of Upholstery definitely gave me the knowledge and practice (and knots) to tackle this with confidence. Thanks Katja!! .

Finally, a chair for us!! I picked up 8 of these from a local hotel that was doing a refurb. Our current dining chairs are hand-me-downs and pretty uncomfortable but these, they are SO comfortable. Made for long dinners, playing games around the table or just sitting. I am super motivated to recover the remaining 7 😍. Beautiful fabrics from and
