Chevron makeover

This chair took on a whole new look with a little bit of chevron fabric!  I love, love, love it!  (and now I'm on the hunt for a chair just like it to make for myself!)  :)






Wingback Chair

My first wingback chair slipcover!

I was really excited to try a wingback chair.  And even more excited when it all came together as I pictured!  The fabric my client bought for this chair was so elegant and went with the design she chose so well!  It is going to be in her office, and I can just picture it complimenting her decor!

~Our inspiration~

The plan is to add some "vintage" buttons to the skirt of the chair, similar to how the buttons are on the "inspiration chair".  Can't wait to see how it all turns out!

Sectional Couch

Last September I made a run out to Indiana for a day to slipcover a SECTIONAL couch!  No - we didn't accomplish this all in one day, but we got a very good start!  I cut and pinned up all the pieces and then two others were sewing.  My main goal was to get all the pieces measured and cut out (which I did accomplish in one day).  I love how this all turned out!  We used the fabric's "wrong" side to make the piping, and I love the contrast!

Bench


I used a black leather type fabric to recover this bench.  My client had been draping black fabric over this bench and decided to get a custom slipcover.  The slipcover helps keep the shape but can give it a totally new look!
